Access a Relationship field inside a Playa field

Question

I have a Playa field that contains related People to display on a page. In each Person entry there is a standard EE Relationship field (pre EE2.6) to assign the Office Location.

What I need to do is show the telephone number from the Office Location, but can't figure out the best way to do it.

Here is my code;

{exp:playa:children field="page_people"}
    {exp:stash:append_list name="page_people" parse_tags="yes"}
        {stash:person_title}{title}{/stash:person_title}
        {!--This is the relationship field for Telephone--}
        {stash:person_telephone}{related_entries id='person_office'}{location_telephone}{/related_entries}{/stash:person_telephone}
    {/exp:stash:append_list}
{/exp:playa:children}

When the page renders, it just displays as {REL[person_office]6g2JK3WuREL}.

If anyone can offer a suggestion, I would be grateful.

Thanks.

Answer 1

The {related_entries} tag was used in EE1, but is no longer used in EE2.

Instead, to call in data from a native EE2 relationship field, you need to use a looping tag pair. For example:

{your_relationship_field}
    {your_relationship_field:title}
    {your_relationship_field:a_custom_field}
{/your_relationship_field}

If your relationship field only accepts one single entry, you can also just use a single tag without the loop, like so:

{your_relationship_field:a_custom_field}

You can find more detailed examples in the EE documentation documentation.

So, your code {related_entries id='person_office'}{location_telephone}{/related_entries} should be:

{person_office:location_telephone}
