Hi,
I have this CPT with a repeater group including 2 fields.
I'd like to know how may I build a single complete form for the CPT, including all fields AND the repeater group?
Thanks.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The thing is that you can not combine field of CPT and repeating field group as both post and repeating field items are treated as identical posts.

You have to create one form for CPT and one form for Repeating field group. Having said that you will require separate form to add/edit CPT posts as well as repeating field group items.

Thank you.
So what would you suggest to build a single page form including repeaters ? popups ??
Or is there a better way ?
Thanks.

May be you should create a page where:
- you add a view that displays the list of all parent post
- with this list, add Add - Edit link to add/Edit repeating field group, so when you click on that, it will redirect you to another page where you added add/Edit form for your repeating field group.
