I'm using Module Manger. The "Field Groups" only shows Post Fields, but I need to include Term Fields in my Export. What's my problem?

Hi Ethan

Unfortunately, your problem is actually our problem.

Module manager has only ever supported post field groups, and does not support term field groups nor user field groups.

We have existing internal tickets about adding support, but as it is seldom requested it hasn't been prioritised.

I would encourage you to file a request at https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/ so that the product manager is aware of your need when it comes to deciding on development priorities.

I'm sorry that there is no work around, you'll need to recreate the term field group where you export the modules to.

Thanks for the very clear explanation. It's easy enough to do as you suggest. My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
