Ok, folks. I am about to start a new project and i am currently researching CCK's available for Joomla.
I need a specific functionality for content items: repeatable fields group.
There is a module available for Drupal, it's called "Multifield", more detailed information can be found here: http://www.phase2technology.com/blog/managing-field-groups-in-drupal-with-the-multifield-module/
What this basically does is this:
1. Admin will create a "fields group" in backend
2. Admin will assign a number of fields to this "fields group"
3. In submission form users will be able to add unlimited number of "instances" of this group and submit information for each one.
Think about classic "fields group" but in a way that one field group can be "added" by the user multiple time inside submission form.
Is there any way i can achieve this with Seblod ? Thanks in advance for any tip !

A case scenario for this is the following
Let say in an article a person can add one or more "book".
A book being composed of a title field, a description field and an image gallery field.
How can i make it so the user can just click on repeat to create a new group of these 3 fields?

Hi mist,
Welcome to the SEBLOD forums.
Yes! In SEBLOD there are Content Types - which are simply a Joomla article. Using your example you could create a Book Content type. Then you would create another Content Type called Books. In that content type you can add a bunch of fields - like Genre, etc. You would then use a GroupX field which would select the Book Content type. Then the user could add as many books as they wanted!
There is another field called FieldX which you could use with an image upload field for example. Then the user could add several images.
Hope that helps!
