    This question is also posted on the uproot forum.

    I have been away from the development of pages for a while but now I’m back and more rusty than ever ??

    Literally I love the relation function but wonder how in the world to do to create a link (href) to the item that it is related to.
    The whole thing works just great, it′s just the link that is the problem, i have used the sample code (“Template Usage”) that can be found on the cfs site.

    As always, absolutely awesome plugin!

    Best regards/fangstrom

    A relationship field returns an array of post IDs.

    You just need to loop through the array, passing each post ID through WP’s get_permalink() function.

    E.g.

    $posts = (array) CFS()->get( 'your_field' );
foreach ( $posts as $post_id ) {
    echo '<div>' . get_permalink( $post_id ) . '</div>'; // outputs each URL
}

    Brilliant!

    Did some mods to the code and now it works exactly as i wanted it to.
    This is what i ended up with ^^

    <?php if ('' != $cfs->get('my_relationship')) : ?>
			<h4>Header</h4>
			<?php
				$posts = (array) CFS()->get( 'my_relationship' );
				foreach ( $posts as $post_id ) {
				$the_post = get_post($post_id);
					echo '<a href="' . get_permalink( $post_id ) . '">' . $the_post->post_title . '</a><br/>';
				}
			?>
		<?php endif; ?>
