 * Hi,
 * I’m using repeated fields in one of my projects. Can you tell when problem with
   fields order will be resolved.
 * Thanks,

 * Hi Adam,
 * We are just working on this. We hope to have a version before the end of the 
   month that will allow you to control the order of repeater fields.
 * Best regards,
    Bruce

 * This is coming in Types 1.1.5, hopefully next week. You’ll have a nice drag-and-
   drop interface for repeating fields. Should have been there from the start, but
   better late than never 🙂
 * I’ll write about this new version in our blog, as soon as it’s ready:

 * Sorry to hijack the thread but I see you mention that you’ll have a nice interface
   for repeating fields. Do you plan, anytime soon, for the ability to repeat groups
   of fields. I find this a massive problem in the current Type plugin and I’m having
   to use other custom post types in order to solve these needs.
 * If I have a slider whereby I have an image and caption then I would need these
   to be in a repeating group so I could add as many slides and captions to a slider
   as I required.
 * Would love to hear your thoughts on this Amir.

 * Types 1.1.5 will have a drag-and-drop interface for reordering repeating fields(
   not groups).
 * In the next version, we’re going to look at enhancing the field groups. It will
   still work with Types parent / child relationship, where field groups belong 
   to a post. We understand the limitations of this, but it also seems that many
   other users are enjoying it.
 * However, we are planning to make this relationship optionally hidden and transparent.
   Meaning, if you don’t care for having a container post, Types will not bother
   you with having to set it up. You will be able to drag fields to a group and 
   Types will handle the underlying container and relationship.
 * From a DB point of view, we’re happy with having a container for field groups.
   This makes querying and using them a lot easier more more robust. We understand
   the issues with usability and will be addressing them.
 * Types 1.1.5 is scheduled to go out in about 10 days.
 * The next Types version, with the other changes I’m talking about here, is about
   6 weeks away.
 * I hope this helps.
