    I can't find a way to chart data coming from several tables.

    I have front end, user edits own data tables. 

    I've split my data across several tables to keep it organised and minimise the database calls.  And I can chart each one individually, 

    But charts only allows data to be gathered from a single table. So I cant chart data sourced from multiple tables.  So I thought I would collect the relevant data into one table and chart that.  But I cant seem to achieve it.

    There are just 3 integer fields in each table, and I just want to chart the average of each column - so just 3 numbers from 7 tables.  

    I got the "average" shortcodes from each table and column, but parsing the shortcodes into another table creates a string, not an integer, so I cant chart that table either.

    Is there any way I can collate the numbers I need into one table, as integers, so I can chart it?

    Hello Andrew

    I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.

    You could only create a new SQL Query based table, that would pull the data from all other tables into one, and then create a new chart from that data table.

    Kind Regards,
