    Hi,
    I’m using this plugin since some months and I’m really happy with it.
    I would like to use the recent “Field Group” feature to simplify some information handling. The use case is :
    A single person has to subscribe to different event in different dates, but in the backend we need an entry for each event.

    I would like to avoid several form submission for the interested person and just use the Field Group repeater. So the flow I would like to implement is:
    1. the user opens a form page and insert his personal data just once.
    2. the user adds as many event date as he need (with repeater)
    3. the form submission is exported to googlesheet with different format: a new row for each item in field group, something like:

    row1: username, userphone, eventdate-1, eventdetails-1
    row2: username, userphone, eventdate-2, eventdetails-2
    row3: username, userphone, eventdate-3, eventdetails-3

    I think this is not possible at the moment, nevertheless I have experienced a very good support on your side and I hope you could provide me with some hints for a custom modification of the export logic.
    Many thanks

    Hello @proprioio ,

    I’ve sent a message to our developers and they will be checking if that is possible with custom code.

    Thanks Kasia
    I would like to add that we just need those different rows, so it would be ok also to get multiple submissions, one for each repeated field group.

    Hi @proprioio

    We got feedback from our developers on this and I’m afraid there wouldn’t be workaround for now.

    The repeater-type field is relatively new addition to the plugin and there are some other export-related (which also applies to such Google Sheet integration export) parts of the code that also need some improvements and changes as at this moment there’s no way to “hook up” to any filters that would help. Basically, significant changes in plugin’s core code would be required.

    There are already planned improvements that would eventually make it possible to create this kind of export feature but I don’t really have an ETA on it.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Adam,
    many thanks, I can understand the point concerning the new field and the related export functionality.
    Is there any hook I could explore to eventually duplicate the submissions?

    regards

    Hi @proprioio

    I pinged our SLS Team to review your second query. Thank you for your patience while we look into this further.

    Hi @proprioio

    I spoke with our SLS Team and such a thing will be too complex and out of scope.

    Kind Regards,
    Kris
