Tell us what you are trying to do?
I've created a post type called days. In that post type I have two different Repeatable fields groups. Now I want to let the visitors edit the data for that post (where I have added a view to show a table list with each custom fields grouped). So I created the form for the repeatable FG, Then a content template for it. But when I add a new "block" within the view, and a link to edit the content template (including the form) the edit link won't appear.

When I created the form for editing the content I selected my Repeatabel field group from the post list.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I've been following this lesson but without success: https://toolset.com/course-lesson/front-end-forms-for-repeatable-field-groups/

What is the link to your site?
This is the URL to a custom post type showing the list that is made of Repeatable field group
hidden link

Note: I have two different Repeatable field groups for this post type, but only one of them is active for public view, yet.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

Can you please share temporary admin login details, so that I can see how this view, content template, and the edit form are set up?

I'll be in a better position to guide you, accordingly.

Note: Your next reply will be private and it is recommended to make a complete backup copy, before sharing the access details.

regards,
Waqar

Thank you for sharing the admin access.

The shortcode for the edit link was placed in a "Fields and Text" block, which was outside the view's loop.

I included it inside the view's loop, in one of the columns and it is working, as expected now.
