The scenario is:

I want to have a page, a location of some kind, with fixed content (only editable on the back-end). But i want to have on it a repeatable group, that can be added in the front end by anyone.

Is this possible? And if so, can this edits be required to be approved on the back-office by a admin?

Hi Bruno,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately no this is not possible. Repeatable field groups can only be used on the backend.

Thanks,

Other way around. Can I have a one to many relationship with that origin post, and the CRED form create a new item with that relationship, via hidden field or something?

Hi Bruno,

So what you want is for users to be able to create a child post from that fixed parent post page correct?

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Shane

If possible needing approval on the back-office.
