I am trying to: Add a field group "Knowledge" to the standard Post on hidden link

I expected to see the fields of the field group when creating a new Post.

Instead, I got the standard post fields only. The custom fields were not displayed.

I then realized that the field group was set "inactive" in the field group controller. But whichever way I try to activate it (hover > activate, tick > mass action > activate) I don't get the field group activated :-S

What can be preventing the field group from being activated?
(Side note: Toolset forms installation through the "commercial plugins" installer dashboard didn't work, but that shouldn't cause an issue here, I suppose?)

I am thankful for any hint!

Hello,

I have tried it in your website, I can see the custom field group "Knowledge" is activated in your website, and it works fine, for example:
hidden link

See screenshot knowledge.JPG

Is this problem resolved? Please let me know if you need more assistance for it.

Hi Luo, thank you for checking. Indeed on the next day the Field set was active, which I couldn't achieve to do originally. I just hope that next time the activation works again as normal 😉
