Hello Steve,

Please see my code below. The first three groups are being used in my project, but the last field was copied straight from the Piklist demo file (field-editor.php). I just tried this on a new WordPress installation (WordPress v.4.3.1) and the editor fields do not work within an Add_More. I thank you and your team for all of your hard work on this framework. Can you give a timeframe on when the next release with this resolution will be available?

@shayneol– There were two issues:

1) Try downloading again. There were some old files still on WordPress.org.
2) Even with the old files, your admin shouldn’t have looked like that. Make sure you don’t have another version of Piklist running, or it hasn’t been included in some other plugin or your theme.

Let me know if this works.

I think I was premature in the last statement. After I submitted the comment, I noticed that for the last group, the “,’add_more’ => true” statement was directly associated with the editor instead of the entire group. Like that, the entire group (two text boxes, one select, and one editor) repeated fine. I could add as many repeated items as I wanted. However, when I moved the “,’add_more’ => true” statement to the group itself, I then could not add more than ten repeated items without the editor glitching as before.

🙁 sorry

I used the following code. An editor with an Add_More, but NOT within a group seems to work correctly. When the editor is inside a group, unexpected things happen. For the following code, the Add_more is directly attached to the editor that is within a group. Instead of just being able to repeat the editor alone, it repeats the entire group when you click the “+” button. The entire group can be repeated more than ten times.

When I move the Add_more statement to the group instead of on the editor (see below), all items were enclosed within the repeating group as expected, but this time it wouldn’t let me add more than eleven items without the editor glitching.

I actually tried that right after submitting my last response. I just tried it again (removing ,’scope’ => ‘post’ from both the single editor and the editor within the group). It didn’t work 🙁

Ok. I just email it

Hello Steve,

I just sent you a screencast of what I am doing.

Thanks

“By George She’s got it!” v0.9.9.3 seems to have resolved the editor issue. I was able to add twenty repeated elements without issue. Thanks for all the hard work. I have a more complicated section that I need to try out with conditional logics and many Add_More/Editor fields, but as of right now it looks good. I’ll keep you updated.

Thanks again 🙂
