Just wondering why, or what the delay is on this feature? A much needed component in the Form Editor UI.

I’m curious as well. I’ve used the custom code method before but it’s kind of a pain. WS Form has this feature and it is really nice. The Gravity Perks Nested Form plugin works decently well, but it requires a second form to be made AND it only works in a modal.

Custom coding can be a headache. WS Form’s feature sounds awesome, and while Gravity Perks Nested Form works okay, it’s a bit clunky with its extra steps.

The Repeater feature is still in beta because we’re making sure it’s smooth and works perfectly. they’re on it.
