Ok, brilliant, that fixed it. As I said, this is the first time I am using Repeatable Groups.
I have another issue where I added a second repeatable group to a Post Fields Group when I realised I'd better create a 2nd Fields Group for that new repeatable group, so I deleted that repeatable group from the first Fields Group, created a second Group and inserted the repeatable group again, but the system now says that that slug for the repeatable group has already been used, even though I cannot find that group anywhere.
It is also visible in my View, where "voorgerechten" is the old repeatable group and "voorgerechten2" is the new one. How do I delete the old one?
the plugin did not find any items.
However, via the Custom Fields > Post Field Control, I was able to assign my 4 orphaned fields (as I had to delete the newly created RFB "voorgerechten-new") and now that RFG is visible again in the CFG "Voorgerechten" but they are not inside a repeatable group. When I create "voorgerechten" as RFG, it still says that slug is already taken. That old "ghost" RFB slug "voorgerechten" is still around 'somewhere'.
I must have deleted something critical in the database, because now my Post Field Group is gone 🙁
I recreated the PFG "Voorgerechten" and linked it to "Menus", so far so good.
The I tried to create the Repeatable Group "voorgerechten" but that slug is still already in use, then I tried with "voorgerecht" which was the last one I used and now that one is also already in use.
I'd rather not start using "voorgerechten-2" and so on.
I have found some leftover "voorgerechten" inside the _options table in the wpcf-custom-types option, but that is far too complex to just delete it there.
I've managed to delete it through the database in the wpom_options table under the column wpcf-custom-types.
You can replace the data with this, however you views will lose assignment of their Post Types as well as some data loss may occur that i haven't seen as yet.

Did you backup the database before doing this ? Also a mentioned previously some dataloss will occur and you will essentially need to go back and re-assign your views to the correct CPT, same for your custom fields.
The reason why you are getting these errors is because we deleted the entries in an unsafe manor.
Normally database entries are not deleted like this but because this is a massive array it makes it hard to identify and delete the correct information cleanly.
So there is no safe way to delete these leftover repeatable field group slugs?
Then this is surely a bug in the code when deleting RFG the slug is not removed from the DB.
