1. I have created multiple repeatable field groups that all display in the content selection of a view. I dont see any way to delete them. They cannot be deleted from the field group as they are no longer connected to it and trying to add a repeatable field group of the same name back in as I am told: "Slug is already in use.".

The bigger issue is that field groups wont stay connected with a post type. I create the field group, associate it with a post type and add repeatable field groups and add fields to them. I then create the post and add in some repeatable fields and save and thats fine. But if I save the post again, the custom fields disappear. If I then go back to the field group, the post type is no longer connected with it. The repeatable field group still exists as it appears in the view to select but i can no longer add it to a field group and cannot delete it. (Thus the issue in point 1)

Regards,

David

Hi, first please update to the latest release candidates Types 3.0-RC2 and Views 2.6-RC3.
They cannot be deleted from the field group as they are no longer connected to it and trying to add a repeatable field group of the same name back in as I am told: "Slug is already in use."
I'm not currently able to replicate this in my local testing, is it still occurring after updating to the latest RCs? If so, can you tell me: did you delete the custom fields in this RFG from Post Field Control? You can get there by going to Toolset > Custom Fields and clicking the button at the bottom of the screen. Then delete any custom fields that were associated with the old RFG here.

But if I save the post again, the custom fields disappear. If I then go back to the field group, the post type is no longer connected with it.
Okay strange, I'm not able to reproduce this one either but it could be an exception. If it continues to occur after updating RCs and deleting the old related custom fields using Post Field Controls, check to be sure it occurs with only Toolset plugins and a default theme like Twenty Seventeen active. If so I can ask my 2nd tier to investigate on a clone of the site.
