      Hi, I searched the demos and forums but couldn’t quite find what I’m looking for.

      I want to repeat a meta box with an “add more”

      Say I have a meta box called “Event” that has name, date, description as piklist fields.

      Then I want to allow the user to repeat this meta box with an “add more” and create a new event with the same fields.

      I know this is possible with ACF but I’m trying to stick to piklist. Is this possible? And if so, how?

      I’ve only started playing with it so there may be other ways, but you can create a grouped field and repeat that, which is much the same as the way ACF does things

      
piklist('field', array(
    'type' 			=> 'group'
    ,'label' 			=> 'Event'
    ,'add_more' 		=> true
    ,'fields' 			=> array(
	  // add the fields that describe an event
          array(
             'type' 			=> 'text'
             ,'field' 			=> 'event_name'
             ,'label' 			=> 'Event Name'
          )
         // ... etc - more fields
    )
  ));

      Thanks. However, I don’t want to repeat fields. I want to repeat an entire metabox.
