How to export data? Thank !!!
Thank For the code,
I face problem while removing column, if i remove from buttom it works fine, but when i remove random any field it remove its sibling fields too. and always select its very first value..
Dear Helen,
first of all, thank you so much. It seems that this is nearly what I need.
Sadly, I am not a really professional coder, just starting with wordpress metaboxes and custom fields. Actually, my proud success was to add custom fields to select or multiselect custom taxonomy terms and save them. Well, everybody´s starting low, right.
I have a big question. Would you be so kind to gibt me an example of one repeatable group of fields including 4 fields (like I created them)?
In the meantime, I will try this on my own, but many passages in your code look (actually) hard to understand for me :)
Let me know, if you like to help.
Best wishes and thanks again
Buddy
Hi Dear Helen, glad to know that, your code is working fine. but when I try to upload media as a repeatable field then I am facing a few problems to solve this. please check my following code and let me know the solutions. if I get a solution then it will save lots of time. Already I wasted my 2 nights.

I'd suggest using Meta Box Group for repeatable group of custom fields. It supports unlimited level nesting and supports all field types.
