No repeatable field-group option?

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I cannot see the "Add Repeatable Group" button in my custom field editor screen.

Solution: Use the Post Relationship migration tool in Toolset > Relationships to migrate to the new relationships system.

Using latest version of Types, there is no repeatable field-group.
Is this feature removed?

Hi, the repeatable field group (RFG) feature has not been removed. It should be visible in the Custom Field Group editor screen. If the button is not visible at all, this could mean the site has not migrated to the new Post Relationships system. You can go to Toolset > Relationships to confirm this. If you see a message about migration, you must run the migration script. If you see a dashboard showing Relationships, then the site doesn't need to be migrated and you should see the RFG button.

If the button is visible but inactive, this could be because the field group is applied to more than one type of post. A field group must only be applied to a single post type in order to add a RFG to the field group.

Let me know if the problem isn't resolved and I can take a closer look.

I got it to work. I had to migrate the relationships. That's wierd because it is a fresh install of WP that Toolset was never installed on. And also it didnt ask me to migrate at any point. The option "Add new RFG" just wasnt there.

It works now. Thank you.
