    I’m having trouble getting the relationship field to work any further than one channel deep. To try to solve the problem I have replicated the example given in the User Guide of the games:teams:players.

    I have added two fields to one of my channels as below:

    Journal:
          home             Relationship (pointing to Teams channel, a single Team)
          away             Relationship (pointing to Teams channel, a single Team)
       

    Teams
          title             Text Input
          url_title           Text Input
          players           Relationship (pointing to Players channel, multiple Players)

    Players
          title             Text Input
          url_title           Text Input
          first_name         Text Input
          last_name           Text Input
          number             Text Input (Number)

    This code:

    The final scores were {home:title} with  and {away:title} with .
           Playing for {home:title} were:
           {home:players}
           <span class="player">#{home:players:number} {home:players:first_name} {home:players:last_name}</span>
           {/home:players}
            
           Playing for {away:title} were:
           <div class="players">
            {away:players}
            <span class="player">#{away:players:number} {away:players:first_name} {away:players:last_name}</span>
            {/away:players}

    then returns:

    The teams were Example Team A and Example Team B with

    Playing for Example Team A were:

    Playing for Example Team B were:

    So the multiple relationships always fail. This was the same result I was having with my intended Journal:Galleries:Images relationship.

    I successfully have multiple relationships working one channel deep (Parent:children), but can never get them working at a Master:Parent:children level. Everything in the admin area seems exactly as yoy would expect - you can add multiple players to teams.

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Many thanks
