Was the custom field created as a Repeatable field in our Types plugin ? If so then you can just add the field to the form and it will automatically add the repeatable field option.
If you're creating a generic field from your form then No you are not able to add repeatable generic fields.

- Yes, i already added the repeatable field in the custom field section, but there is no repeatable field element for me to choose in the post form
What you have is not a repeatable field. It is a repeatable Field Group.
This is meant to be used when you want a group of fields to be repeated as a group. If this is not what you want then you will need to create the field as a repeatable field and Not a repeatable field group.
A repeatable field group requires its own Form, so when you create the form for the Post Type you will select "Retailer Product" .
Also it should be noted that the field type that you've selected doesn't support being a repeatable field.
Sure. Currently you have your repeatable field group called Retailer Product.
Because this is a Repeatable Field group and not just a Repeatable field then you will need an entirely separate Form for this. Currently forms doesn't have the ability to Create Repeatable Field Groups while Creating the Parent Post, in your case it is Retailer Order.
How you will need to proceed with this is that the Parent Post i.e the Retailer Order must first be created, then you can use the Retailer Product Form to populate the Retailer Order.
To Create your Retailer Product Form follow the instructions below.
1. Go to Toolset -> Post Forms -> Add New
2. Under Post to Create / Edit you will select Retailer Product.
3. Continue throughout and auto generate your form.
4. Add the form to a page and then when you preview on the frontend you will get the fields from the Retailer Product Repeatable Field group as well as a Parent field to select the Order that this field group belongs to.
Once you have done this you will now be able to link the Product RFG to the correct order.
Please let me know if this is clear or if further clarity is required.
I would love to know the resolution for this. I am having the same issue and everything is identical to what you posted screenshots of. Could you let me know how you resolved it? I want this form to show up exactly how it does when I go to add a post in the background. It lets me add the parent post info and then add as many repeatable form groups as I want.
