The customer has several events, each with multiple dates stored in a repeating field group. They want to display all events in a list ordered by the date of the first event. The inner view correctly retrieves the next upcoming date of each event, but they want the outer view to use the same logic to order the events by the first upcoming date.
Solution:
We explained that due to the way repeatable field groups are implemented (as child posts), the fields for the event dates belong to the child posts, making it impossible to directly order the outer events by these fields. The suggested solution is to add a field directly to the event posts that records the next upcoming event date. This field can then be used to order the event posts. To automate this process, the customer can use the save_post hook to copy the upcoming date to the main post whenever changes are made, ensuring that the data stays up to date.
Problem:
The user would like to have the parent post selected automatically in a form.
Solution:
Regarding the first question, you will need to put the form inside a content template that is bound to the parent post. For example, create a view that will query the "Member" posts where the current user is the author, it should return one post if the user has already a post. Inside the loop, which is bound to that post, you can put the form and use the technique in the following article or the following similar tickets:

Problem: I have 6 Forms that create custom posts. For each Form, I would like to automatically set one term in a custom taxonomy when the post is published.
Solution: Use the cred_save_data API to programmatically set a term specific to each Form for the published posts:
