Tell us what you are trying to do? Make a copy of a post (cpt nl2021) in order to create a modified version. This cpt has several custom fields, including a repeating field group. When I duplicate the post (I've tried multiple plugins for the purpose) the repeating field group in the new post is empty.

Is there any documentation that you are following? no

Is there a similar example that we can see? no

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Hi Chuck

As repeatable field groups are stored in separate (related) posts, duplicating a post will not duplicate its repeatable field groups.

You would need a code solution for that.

As it comes up quite often, some time ago I created a sample for use with the Yoast Duplicate Post plugin, which you can find here:

Hopefully that still works as intended if you want to try that.
