Repeater

A significant issue is the lack of documentation, and I am very dissatisfied with the CF7 product purchase. I'm seeking assistance on how to use a repeater in CF7 for a group of fields. The user should be able to duplicate a group of fields using the "Add" button, and the user should also be able to remove a group of fields if they turn out to be unnecessary. In the version from the screenshot, the "Usuń" buttons for removing groups do not work correctly.
What the correct backend configuration should look like ?

I have the same issue:
The Delete Clone button is not working.
The above link have substantial but scattered info about how the fields from inside of the Repeater should be named. Thing that is critical and should be explained not find through trials and errors process.
But there is no info at all about setting up properly the Delete Clone functionality.

At least please build an example of the repeater and share it.
I have used an "Grid" Area type inside the repeater's loop and all my fields, except "Add Clone" repeater Action, are inside that "Grid". This may be the issue?
Also there is confusing setup for "Add Clone" button. It works if I select the repeater's Name. But the logic say it suppose to clone what is inside the "loop". Not the whole repeater....
Once more, an working example should be more than useful. From there on, the form customization can be build and checked before each step.

Thank you very much! Please dont send me to the https://www.chronoengine.com/forums/topics/view/108628/explanation-of-cf7-repeater link.
I have read it ten times over...

The Delete Clone functionality is broken in Chronoforms Version7.0.11
I have seen its functionality in the following scenario:
I have builded the following simple form to test the repeater
https://dev0.unicserv.ro/images/system/Form_30_Aug_2023_10%2053%2021.cf7bak

After completing and pressing "submit" twice, the form did not get re-instantiated, some of the old fields remain. For those fields the "Delete Clone" button suddenly start working.
When I add more field groups the "Delete Clone" button failed.
The firefox debug shows the following difference between old fields divs (delete clone working) and new fields div (delete clone not working)

Please help!

I Confirm that the "Delete" button from exactly the same form is now working after installing 7.0.10 over 7.0.11 in Joomla 4.3.4 with Cassiopea template.
But now My Chronoforms testing period expired..... I lost the validation.

great, so you may test under a "localhost" with XAMPP or under an IP address, this way you can validate for free

The thing is (as reported in topics 110584, 110547 on this forum), that in 7.0.11, you can show/hide repeater group instances by placing them in a segment area and having event actions to toggle display, but the delete clone button is bust. And if you use 7.0.10, the delete cone button works, but the toggle show/hide of the repeat groups does not work.

I see 7.0.11 is no longer listed for download, does that mean 7.0.11 has been pulled?
