    Is there a way to duplicate entire field groups? For example, I have a field group called Sports with fields such as sport, jersey number, position and coach. If someone plays more than one sport I would like them to be able to click a button that says “Add Another Sport” and another Sports field group will display so they can enter their information for the second sport.

  • This kind of thing can be very complex to implement. You probably shouldn’t do it by actually adding a group of fields, that would eventually cause the database to get too “wide” because each user could be adding columns to the table.

    The right way to do this is to create a custom form element that is actually a set of form inputs. The form element is set up to allow the user to add new, blank, sets of form inputs.

    It’s a pretty steep proposition, coding-wise, though…high degree of difficulty.

    Thank you for your quick response. I’ve created custom fom elements before with forms I’ve created from scratch. I just wanted to check first to see if there was a quick way to do it through your plugin.
