 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the great work.
 * We have created two Custom post types for an Movies website.
 * “Movie” and “Ceebrity” (Actor profiles).
 * Inside each Movie we would like to link in the actor who acting in that movie.
 * And on each Actors’s profile page, we’d like to list the movies that they acted(
   i.e. the movies they’re related to).
    is there any way to auto linking, like 
   if we add actor in movie, then the movie will auto list on actors profile? Thank
   you. What’s the best way to achieve this elationship please?
 * We are using Elementor, Custom Post Type UI, Advanced Custom Fields PRO

 * I dunno how automatic it’ll be, but I know of [https://wordpress.org/plugins/posts-to-posts/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/posts-to-posts/)
   has typically been used for this type of relationship between posts in post types.
 * Otherwise, the only way I could think of doin something like this would be some
   sort of query for movies, based on currently looked at actor and vice versa.
 * Custom Post Type UI will only be a minor part in the overall setup here.
