Hi, I have a repeater field that I am using on a CPT, and I need one of the fields inside the repeater to be a Post Relationship because the data needs to be connected to another CPT. I do not see the option to do this.
Can you please help?
Thanks.

Hello,

I assume we are talking about custom repeatable field groups.
If it is, the custom Post Reference Field can not be placed into a Repeatable Group.

In your case, you can consider two one-to-many relationships, for example:
1) Setup three post types:
- CPT 1
- CPT 2
- Child CPT

2) Setup two one-to-many relationships:
- one-to-many relationship between "CPT 1" and "Child CPT"
- one-to-many relationship between "CPT 2" and "Child CPT"

You can use "Child CPT" as the repeatable field groups, it should be able to work same results.
