    Hi,
    I’ve seen a few posts from folks with similar/same issues.  Not sure of the answer however.

    I have 14 blogs that have 95% the same custom fields, and 5% different on each one.
    Ihave about 30 custom fields for each field group.

    So, It is very time consuming for me to re-enter, from scratch, 14 times, 30 fields, just because 2 fields need to be different on each one.

    Is there a solution here:
    either duplicating an initial field group, so then we just go in and modify the 2 fields in each group.

    or

    display in the CP only the right questions for that blog, even while using the SAME field group?

    I don’t think either works, but people must come across this issue.  Maybe the solution is:  interns!  I"m not sure.

    Please let me know if there is a way…..

    Thanks.

    Phoebe

    Hi Phoebe,

    In lieu of interns, this would be a feature request.  😉
