We’re currently using relationships to connect entries for a magazine and are having problems getting the channel images to be pulled in to the individual posts:
http://www.edgemagazine.com/dev/index.php/style

There is a Channel called “Issue” that has a title only; “Issue Name”.  This allows us to connect each article to an issue of the magazine.

Article Information for “Style”
Title   {title}  text input
url Title text input
Issue {issue}  Relationship
Gallery {gallery}  Channel Images
Content {content}  Wyigwam

<br /> {exp:channel:entries channel="issue" limit="1" dynamic="no"}<br />         {parents field="issue" channel="style" limit="5"}              <br />         <!—Section Article—><br />     <div class=“section-articles-container”><br />       <div class=“section-articles”><br />         <br />     <div class=“tile first-tile” ><br />           <br />     <a href="#">_               {gallery}_     <span class="image-holder"></span>_     {/gallery} _     <h3></h3>_     <span class="excerpt">some text p</span>  _           _     <span class="overlay"></span>_     </a><br />     </div><br />     <h2 class=“section-article”>{parents:title}</h2><br />     {exp:trunchtml chars="300" inline="..."}{parents:content}{/exp:trunchtml}</p> <p>    </div><br />     </div><br />         <!—/ Section Article—><br />         {/parents}<br /> {/exp:channel:entries}  <br />

Special thanks to Robin of EllisLab Support for the assistance (found below).

{exp:channel:entries channel="issue" limit="1" dynamic="no"}
        {parents field="issue" channel="health_wellness"}
          <h2 class="section-article">{parents:title}</h2>
          <div class="section-author">{parents:author}</div>
          {parents:content}
          </div>
        {/parents}
      {/exp:channel:entries}

We still have a minor hurdle to overcome:

////////////////////////
How to get information from a tag pair through the new relationship parents tag.
////////////////////////

Usually when using the parents tag, you get information by doing the following:

{parents:field_name}

But what can you do if the field involves a tag pair?

I’ve tried this:

{parents:field_name}
 {content}
{/parents:field_name}

A more accurate example is below. The field type is a channel images field type if people are familiar with that:

{parents:gallery}
 {image:url:small}
{/parents:gallery}

We got it 😊.

{exp:channel:entries channel="issue" limit="1" dynamic="no"}
          {parents field="issue" channel="health_wellness" limit="1"} 
  <div class="tile first-tile" >
     
  <a href="#">_                {parents:gallery}_  <span class="image-holder"></span>_                {/parents:gallery}_ _  <h3>h3</h3><p>_  <span class="excerpt">some text p</span>    _       _  <span class="overlay"></span>_  </a><br />
  </div><br />
  {/parents}<br />
          {/exp:channel:entries}
