I am trying to get around this issue by using shortcodes,
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/block-editing-doesnt-show-field-group-to-bind-data-to/

I am using the following text to display a clickable tel: link

<div>
  <a href="tel:[types field='fs_phone' output='raw'][/types]">
    <i class="fa fa-phone-square blue" aria-hidden="true"> [types field='fs_phone'][/types]</i> 
  </a>
</div>

The resulting <a> tag looks like this:

<a href="tel:0411 747 363[/types]"><i class="fa fa-phone-square blue" aria-hidden="true"> 0411 747 363</i> </a>

Hello,

I assume we are talking about a custom "Phone" field created with Toolset Types plugin.
How do you display those codes you mentioned above?

I have tried it in my localhost with below a "Shortcode Block" + below codes:

<div>
<a href="tel:[types field='fs_phone' output='raw'][/types]"><i class="fa fa-phone-square blue" aria-hidden="true">[types field='fs_phone'][/types]</i></a>
</div>

It works fine in my localhost, see my screenshot phone-field.JPG
