Hi,

I have a parent with two children, like this (or see the attachment).

          Product (parent)
              /        \
            /            \
          /                \
  Artist (child)    Exhibition (child)

The following code works. It gets me all Products that belong to a particular Exhibition.

{exp:channel:entries channel="exhibition"} 

 {parents field="product_exhibition"}
    
     {parents:product_image:thumb}
    
     {parents:title}

 {/parents}
  
{/exp:channel:entries}

But I also want to get the Artist title for each Product, like this:

{exp:channel:entries channel="exhibition"} 

 {parents field="product_exhibition"}
    
     {parents:product_image:thumb}
        
        PRODUCT_ARTIST:TITLE
    
     {parents:title}

 {/parents}
  
{/exp:channel:entries}

I’m not sure if EE allows for this - anybody have any ideas?

Thanks for looking.

Siblings?

Yes, thank you! (for some reason I’d thought siblings was same-channel only.)

Here’s my new code:

{exp:channel:entries channel="exhibition"} 

 {parents field="product_exhibition"}
    
     {parents:product_image:thumb}
        
         {siblings channel="artist" field="product_artist"}
                       
                       {siblings:title}
                
                {/siblings}
    
     {parents:title}

 {/parents}
  
{/exp:channel:entries}

It works great, except that for each entry it is outputting multiple artist names, rather than the single (correct) name for each entry… I’m hoping another one word answer can fix it!

Sorry, my quota of one-word answers is filled for the day..😉

Do those artists all share the same Parents (products)?

Thanks for offering more valuable words 😊

Each product has a unique artist associated with it:

Product 1 belongs to Artist 1
Product 2 belongs to Artist 2
Product 3 belongs to Artist 3

So I should get:

Product 1 image accompanied by Artist 1 name
Product 2 image accompanied by Artist 2 name
Product 3 image accompanied by Artist 3 name

But in fact I get:

Product 1 image accompanied by Artist 1 name, Artist 2 name, and Artist 3 name.
Product 2 image accompanied by Artist 1 name, Artist 2 name, and Artist 3 name.
Product 3 image accompanied by Artist 1 name, Artist 2 name, and Artist 3 name.

If I had Artist 4, his name wouldn’t show up - only those Artists that are related to at least one image on the page show up.

Hope that makes sense… and thanks!

Just to update this thread:

This seems to work:

{parents:product_artist}
                
     {parents:product_artist:title}
                
{/parents:product_artist}

And indeed, just this alone:

{parents:product_artist:title}

Just realised that should you need to access grandchildren you can do:

parents:parents:xxx
