Simple Question About Lists and Repeating Groups

[jonathanrobertchia]

I am looking for a solution that I thought I would have found by forum posts and documentation but I cant seem to find anything that fits my simple case.

I am trying to have a repeating group show a list of data from the data type. I want each item in the list to be a separate cell in the repeating group but right now it is just putting everything in the list in the one cell and seperated by commas.

The example is that I have a company database that references another dataset | option set that is categories the company can be in. Each company can be in multiple categories. How do I make each of the categories show up on a company page like “tags” in a repeating group? If some one could point me in the direction of a resource that could help me on this it would be much appreciated.

Will add some screenshots below of the problem and the data sources/types that im using as Im assuming the issue is there somewhere…

Any help would be much appreciated.

also here is a screenshot of the data types /sets

It looks to me like your 2x2 repeating group should have the datasource “this cells company’s sectors” and then instead of the textbox’s source being each item’s sector name, it should be current cells sector name.

Hi @wknepp . Thanks for looking in to this. I unfortunately don’t have that option. See screenshot below. Is it because of a wrong data source or type of content further up the element tree?

Sorry for the delay. You need to change the type of content to sector, and then change the datasource to parent group’s company’s sectors
