Setting a celebrity as the produces, custome filed

HI,

So in WordPress, i have custome post type page, where i put in celebrities. I put their name, picture, about etc..

Now, i have another page 'Music' where i put their music and on the sidebar theres their name and excerpt of the about them.

How can i make so each celebrity added, can now be selected with the video? so if i add a song e.g. Love Me by Selena Gomez, i need to select her profile form celebrity and assign her to the song.

You could create a custom category taxonomy, and populate the options with the names of the celebrities. Than when add the video, you also choose the celebrity or celebrities that need to be included, and than you can use php logic in your templates to either show the attached celebrities on the video page, or the videos on the celebrities page? That custom taxonomy will give you the link you need.

Easy. Change the way your doing it. Make them users instead and the author of the posts.

Then for the music page just do a loop and display the author and the data you want.
