Rachel what I need to do is build biography pages, once those pages are built I want to use the same information but a small snippet of it so I can create a snippet of the biography in other locations.
If you hover over the byline names you see a popup. I would want to use the information in here but pull it form another template which I have yet to create.
I basically need a json object that I can share via variables. How would I accomplish something like this with perch?
I forgot to ask Another reason is so I can repeat it right now I have all these tags repeating in my markup. I also do not have a way to enter an optional character so the word "and" is taking a ride with my hover and opening up the box. How would you recommend a solution for this?
I appreciate your support btw I have noticed that you guys answer a lot of questions.
One template will be a biography page. But then the writers want a way to preview a part of that information in the drop down byline. They don't want to enter the information twice. Is there a way I can do this?
I'm not sure what you mean by "nesting". What problem are you trying to solve?

Would it not just be a case of showing a subset of the same content through a simplified template?

Sure. Use
perch_content_custom()
to display the content from the biography page using a simplified template.Thank you Drew I will read this documentation.
