Setting up Parent child relationship

Rhythmyx Technical Discussion
1

We have a requirement where the content items are related to each other via Parent relationship, child relationship and sibling relationship.

The way I was thinking to implement this relationship was to use manual slot in the content item. Therefore, the parent content item will have a slot called childitemsslot. In this slot, the users will add the item items that they think should be the children of the parent content item.

Is there any better way to setup this relationship?

thanks

I think that would be the best way to do it. Another way…more of a hack… would be to use navigation. That is, say the landing page of navigation is the parent and everything else would be the children. A benefit to using navigation is that you would just need to drag the content into say a particular folder without necessarily having to add them all to a slot. This would of course have / can have other implications so I would highly recommend the slot option…
