I try to realize a database structure like this.

https://i.stack.imgur.com/MeCoj.png

I have 3 post types:
* Workout
* Exercise
* Set

Thanks to the many-to-many plugin i can connect the Workout and Exercise with ease. But how can i connect the Set’s with one-to-many relation to the “bay_mb_relationships” junction table.

Hi,

If you want to force only one connection from one side of a relationship, please set 'max_clone' => 1 to the field on that side, like this:
```
add_action( 'mb_relationships_init', function () {
    MB_Relationships_API::register(
        array(
            'id'   => 'workout_to_workout_exercises',
            'from' => array(
                'object_type' => 'post',
                'post_type' => 'workout',
                'field' => array(
                    'max_clone' => 1, // Limit to 1 connection only.
                ),
            ),
            'to'   => array(
                'object_type' => 'post',
                'post_type' => 'workout_exercises',
            ),
        )
    );
} );
```

Thanks for the tip. I just got to know the plugin. This plugin is very helpful for creating web applications with WordPress. A small minus is the missing attribute “Required” for some file types like “Map”, “Autocomplete”, “Color Picker” and “Advanced Image”. Anyway, i think i will love the plugin more and more the deeper i dive into programming.

Using the example above, I’m wondering how one would go about ensuring that a workout_exercise is only created if a workout has been selected (assigned to it). Essentially, don’t allow an exercise to be created without selecting a workout that it is related to. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks you for creating such a fantastic set of plugins. I would love to see more examples using “Twig”.

Hi Robert,

The extension only helps you to create the relation between the posts, but thanks for the idea, I will discuss with the developer team to support the property 'required' => 1 to check this box not empty like the required fields.
