Norbert Wagner	Friday 05 June 2009 9:12:32 am Hello all, I need a way to do many to many relations on objects. My prefered solution is the object relations datatype but I have one doubt, is it possible to edit the reverse relations on the related objects? Say we have images and categories, where the image class contains the object relations datatype. Creating images I can assign the categories to the image. Now I want the possibility to add or remove images reverse related to a category directly from the category side, without the need to modify a lots of images one by one. Is this possible by simply writing templates? Do I need to write an extension to achive this? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks a lot, Norbert

Hello all,

I need a way to do many to many relations on objects.

My prefered solution is the object relations datatype but I have one doubt, is it possible to edit the reverse relations on the related objects?

Say we have images and categories, where the image class contains the object relations datatype. Creating images I can assign the categories to the image.
Now I want the possibility to add or remove images reverse related to a category directly from the category side, without the need to modify a lots of images one by one.

Is this possible by simply writing templates?
Do I need to write an extension to achive this?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks a lot,
