 * I’ve been trying to figure out the answer to this via prior answers, but just
   need clarification. Sorry, I’m a noob as far as PHP is concerned, but love the
   functionality of PODS as it solved a 4 year effort to be able to display sports
   results for our youth organization on our website by event and then also summarizes
   individual results by player. So thank you – we’ve been able to accomplish this
   via customizing various templates for the specific output needed and it works
   great!
 * What I am trying to figure out (and because I’m a noob) is there a way to have
   a relationship field in results that will pick up the individual fields in say
   either the tournaments or players pods.
 * I have three pods set up, Tournaments, Players, Results
 * Tournaments Pod Fields:
    Tournament Name Tournament ID Tournament Date
 * Player Pod Fields:
    Player Name Player ID
 * Results Pod Fields:
    Tournament Name Tournament ID Tournament Date Player Name
   Player ID Result Type (Win, Lose, Tie) Score Opponent Name Opponent Club Season
 * I have pick lists for the tournament name and player name – okay that works, 
   then the rest of the data has to be rekeyed, from what I can figure from my limited
   technical background.
 * Is there a way to call additional info (e.g. tournament id and tournament date,
   and player ID) automatically? or does it have to be rekeyed each time a result
   is entered? I tried to use relationship, but it will only show the “post title”
   in the pick list. Just making sure that I was reading the forum correctly – that
   the template can only call data from one pod at a time and that the relationship
   pick list can only pull “post_title” and “post_date” (etc) — so, I couldn’t use
   the pick list or the template to pull tournament id, player id, tournament date
   automatically from their respective PODs and we’d need to key that information—
   correct?
 * Anyhoot, great plugin — our club is real excited about the possibilities and 
   what we’ve been able to do with it so far. Thanks.
