Usage

GraphQL

The Element Relations field exposes its data in GraphQL. Query the field by its handle to access counts, usage flags, and related elements. Below is a minimal example fetching usage information for a field named relationsField on an entry:

{
  entry(slug: "my-entry") {
    ... on entry_default_Entry {
      title
      relationsField {
        count
        isInUse
        elements(limit: 2) {
          id
          title
        }
        
        globalCount: count(siteIds: []),
        globalIsInUse: isInUse(siteIds: []),
        globalElements: elements(
            siteIds: [],
            limit: 2,
            sections: ['sectionHandle'],
            entryTypes: ['entryTypeHandle']
        ) {
          id
          title
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Twig

Obtain a RelationsModel instance from any element’s relations field, then use its methods to inspect usage.

{# Fetch the RelationsModel from a field named `relationsField` #}

{# @var relationsModel \internetztube\elementRelations\models\RelationsModel #}
{% set relationsModel = element.relationsField %}

Is in use?

{# Check if the element is used in the current site #}
{% if relationsModel.isInUse %}
    {# ... #}
{% endif %}

{# Check usage across all sites #}
{% if relationsModel.isInUse([]) %}
    {# ... #}
{% endif %}

{# Check usage in specific sections/entry types #}
{% if relationsModel.isInUse(sections: ['sectionHandle'], entryTypes: ['entryTypeHandle']) %}
    {# ... #}
{% endif %}

Elements

{# All related elements in elements site #}
{% set elements = relationsModel.elements %}

{# All related elements across all sites #}
{% set allElements = relationsModel.elements(siteIds: []) %}

{# Filter by specific site id(s) #}
{% set site1Elements = relationsModel.elements(siteIds: [1]) %}

{# Limit number of results (e.g., first 2 items) #}
{% set firstTwo = relationsModel.elements(siteIds: [], limit: 2) %}

{# Filter by sections and entry types #}
{% set filteredElements = relationsModel.elements(sections: ['sectionHandle'], entryTypes: ['entryTypeHandle']) %}

{# Combine filters with limit #}
{% set limitedFiltered = relationsModel.elements(limit: 5, sections: ['news', 'blog']) %}

{# All options #}
{% set elements = relationsModel.elements(
    siteIds: [],
    limit: null,
    offset: 0,
    sections: [],
    entryTypes: []
) %}

Elements Iterator

{% for element in relationsModel.elementsIterator(siteIds: [], limit: null, offset: 0, batchSize: 100) %}
    {{ dump(element) }}
{% endfor %}

{# Filter by sections/entry types while iterating #}
{% for element in relationsModel.elementsIterator(sections: ['news'], entryTypes: ['article'], limit: 50) %}
    {{ element.title }}
{% endfor %}

Sites

{# List of sites where the element is in use #}
{% set sites = relationsModel.sites %}

Special / SEOmatic
