We have 3 posttypes wich are related.
1. Event
2. Speaker
3. Location

- An Event will have different Speakers (many to many)
- A Speaker could be on different Events (many to many)
- A Event will have one location - and a location could have many Events (one to many)

An Event was on 2-4 days and on every day different speakers made a session for a specific Theme for an defined duration.
So i must have flexible count of Days and in it flexible count of speakers.

So the idea was to have inside the event a repeatable Fieldgroup for the Sessions, but part of these fieldgroup should come from Posttype Speaker. F.e.
- Event-Day name
- Event-Day date
- speaker name
- speaker image
- speaker profession
- speaker theme
- speaker duration

But is these possible in a repeatable Field Group?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - there is no way to inject another post type field values to the repeating field group that is attached to another post type.

Maybe easier way for you is to have another post type Sessions and create relationship accordingly as per your need with other post types.

Ok, so i will create a post type Session and the speaker was a child of it.
Means that the Speaker was GrandChild of event.

Sound possible, tnx for help
