Dear Sir/Madam,

From my understanding, a repeatable group is a kind of child post, is it possible to make a post form for users to edit the repeatable group post from the frontend? Please advise how I can do that.

Hi Kelvin

What you want is described in this page: https://toolset.com/course-lesson/front-end-forms-for-repeatable-field-groups/#forms-for-editing-values-of-existing-repeatable-field-groups

Could you please try those steps, and if you get stuck let us know specifically where you have a problem?

Thanks

Dear Nigel,

I want to add a button to allow user to edit the individual repeatable field using a form, I finally find the url like

<em><u>hidden link</u></em>

I add above a href in View, is there any shortcode generated by Toolset like

[toolset-edit-post-link content_template_slug='xxx-content-template' target='self']Edit[/toolset-edit-post-link]

Hello,

The shortcode [toolset-edit-post-link] is a built-in feature of Toolset Forms plugin, see our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/forms/cred-shortcodes/#toolset-edit-post-link

You can follow above document to setup the shortcode manually.
