Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm working on a site that is under development. It is for an artists' guild. I'm creating a form where users can create their own directory listing that includes the option to upload multiple piece of art along with a description of the piece. I've set this up in custom fields and it functions properly if I create a new post from the back end.
The repeating field group does not show up when I'm creating the form.

I'm not new to wordpress, but I am new to Toolset, so I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious. This is an important component of the site re-build so any help is appreciated. I've searched the forum and read a few things but nothing has helped me find a solution.

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

I have the form page listed under members that is set so anyone can see it currently. eventually access will be to members only.

Thank you very much.
Sally

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Repeating field groups entries are treated as one-to-many post relationship internally where the post where repeating field group is added is parent and repeating field group entries are treated as child.

You will have to create another form to add repeating field group entries. Here is the Doc:

I switched to a fixed number of images each member can upload. It's not a perfect fix but it keeps things simple and will work as I still get my head around the Toolset framework.
Thank you for your help
