Register Multiple Team Members in a Single Form Submission
Group registrations shouldn’t require a separate form per person. URM’s Repeater Fields let a single user add as many rows of member data as they need — names, emails, roles — all in one submission. One form, one click, entire team registered.
The Problem with Registering Groups One Person at a Time
If a coach wants to register 15 players, or a company wants to enroll an entire department on one entry, asking each person to fill out a separate form creates friction, incomplete data, and a lot of chasing up. A repeater field solves this.
Without Repeater Fields:
- Each team member must fill out and submit a separate form
- Organisers spend hours chasing incomplete entries
- No easy way to link group members together in one record
- High drop-off when group leaders have to fill in 10+ forms
With URM Repeater Fields:
- The team lead fills one form, adding a row per member
- All member data is grouped and submitted together
- As many rows as needed — add or remove before submitting
- Complete team record in a single registration entry
How to Add Repeater Fields to a Registration Form
Built entirely inside the URM form builder. No custom code required.
-
01
Activate the Repeater Fields Add-on
Enable the Repeater Fields add-on from your URM Pro dashboard. A “Repeater” field type will appear in the field panel inside the form builder.
-
02
Add the Repeater Field to Your Form
Drag the Repeater field into your form canvas. Give it a label (e.g. “Team Members”) and then add the sub-fields that should repeat inside it — name, email, position, date of birth, or any other field type URM supports.
-
03
Set Min and Max Row Limits
Optionally define the minimum number of rows a user must add and the maximum they can add. This prevents incomplete submissions and keeps group sizes manageable.
-
04
Publish and Embed
Embed the form on any page. Registrants see the repeater group with an Add Row button. They fill in one set of member fields, hit Add, fill in the next, and repeat until the full group is entered. One Submit covers everyone.
Where Group Registration with Repeaters Makes Sense
Any time you need to collect data for a group — not just the person filling out the form — a repeater field is the right tool.

You can set a maximum number of rows in the field settings if you need to cap group size — for example, limiting a sports team entry to 18 players. You can also set a minimum to ensure at least one row is always filled in. Without limits, users can add as many rows as they need.
No. The repeater field collects grouped data tied to the registering user’s account. One WordPress user is created — the person who submitted the form. The repeater data (e.g. team member details) is stored as user meta and visible in the user’s profile in the admin.
Yes. You can place a repeater field on any step of a multi-step form. For example, step 1 could collect the lead registrant’s account details, and step 2 contains the repeater for adding group members. Each step validates independently before advancing.
Most standard URM field types can be added as sub-fields inside a repeater, including text, email, number, date, dropdown, radio, and checkbox fields. This gives you flexibility to collect any structured group data your use case needs.
No. Repeater Fields is a Pro add-on. You’ll need an active URM Pro license to activate it. The free plugin supports all core field types on standard single-page registration forms.
