Multiple usage of the same fields

    Hello,

    I am setting up a database for students and need to make multiple entries in the same kind of fields. For example if I have a field group called “Scholarships” I have three fields in there: “Start Date”, “End Date” and “Title” of the Scholarship. But what to do if I want to be able to fill in multiple Scholarships? Is there a way for me to make some thing like an “(+) Add new Scholarship”-Button/Link and get the same three fields again? Or do I have to make like 10 times the same fields for that? Like “Start Date 1”, “End Date 1”, “Title 1”; “Start Date 2”, “End Date 2”, “Title 2” and so on.

    Sorry, I am not a native speaker, so I hope my question is understandable.
    Thank you in advance.

    The only way to do this with the free plugin is to add more fields. If the number of scholarships is small, this works OK. Try using a field group to organize the fields, that will help make the form easier to use.

    I do offer an add-on that will provide a way to add multiple entries for each record. this is a good solution if there are a lot of items to add to the record:
