    Hi, I have a issue-based magazine. Each issue contains articles. Accrodingly, I have 2 post types, i.e., Issue and Article (usually 15 articles in each issue).I have also set up a relationship from issues_to_articles.
    Now, I want to display in the single template of Issue, all related articles.
    How do I possibly achieve it?

    Hi,

    In the template of Issue post type, you can use the demo code to get the related Article posts

    $connected = new WP_Query( [
    'relationship' => [
        'id'   => 'issues_to_articles',
        'from' => get_the_ID(), // You can pass object ID or full object
    ],
    'nopaging'     => true,
] );
while ( $connected->have_posts() ) : $connected->the_post();
    ?>
    <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
    <?php
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();

    I am completely a noob. Where do I put this code? In fuctions.php or MB Views template?

    Hi,

    You can put the code to the template file that shows the single post, contact your theme support to ask for the template file.

    If you want to use the View, please follow this documentation to know how to run PHP functions in View https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-views/#running-php-functions
