I am getting close but need a little help.

Working with the multiplier container but must be missing something. Issues I am having:
1. A bug I think that you cannot drag existing form events to Multiplier Container. You can only drag new events into a container.
2. Because I have it set for Chronoforms to auto number the extra entries, I am now having my dropdown list of times auto increase with each multiplier event.
3. My email is only receiving one entry. I obviously am not processing the arrays somehow.
4. Nothing seems to be getting to the database.
Would appreciate any help. I have attached the form.

Hi Emma,
In the main Multiplier container you have left 0 as the 'Replacer'. The multipler does a simple search and replace so is replacing each 0 in the multipler elements, Please try using __N__ as suggested or ##n## or something else that doesn't occur anywhere else. Then edit the element names and ids to use this instead of 0 e.g district_##n##
You can't drag and drop elements between containers but you can copy and paste them from one container to another - and then delete the old one.
The remaining problems may be fixed if you change the Replacer. If not, post again and we'll look some more.

Getting closer.
I used ##n## as the multiplier and added _##n## to the field (is this the correct format - do I only need the underspace in the field id area?). That fixed the starttime field and stopped it from auto counting.
I then looked at the database save settings and found that when I turn off Multi Save, it will now save a single record.
The debugger only shows that the form is sending a single entry to the database so I must still be missing a vital step...

Much closer now. I added an array handler - let the values at default. Played around with the database settings - back to default ones...
I am now getting an email and a database save with all info in it.
However, the multiplier is combining the multiple entries into one field value, separated by commas. I was hoping/expecting a new entry for each time the multiplier is used. Is there a way to do this?

Here is my latest version. If I take out the array handler, I get an error and the form will not work. Would appreciate any help...
