Hi everyone,
I'm working on a WordPress site where I've created a Custom Post Type (CPT) called "Authors." using Pods. Inside this CPT, I want to manage interviews with questions and answers for each author.
Initially, I thought of having a single field group in Pods where I could dynamically add questions and answers based on a "Number of Questions" field. However, I’m running into challenges when trying to display these dynamically created fields using Elementor's loop grid, as it primarily works with CPTs and taxonomies.
Now I’m considering creating a separate CPT for interviews, where each entry would correspond to a question and answer pair, and then relate these entries to the "Authors" CPT. The idea is to have a loop grid in Elementor that would display these questions and answers for each author separately.
For context: "Authors" in this case refers to authors like "Tolkien," who wrote "The Lord of the Rings." This site is focused on books, and while some authors have interviews, not all do. Each author has their own biography page (linked to the CPT).
Does anyone have a better approach or suggestions on how to handle this setup more efficiently? I'd appreciate any advice or best practices, especially on how to manage the relationship between the Authors and Interviews CPTs, and how to best configure the loop grid in Elementor.
Thanks in advance!
