Hi, Could someone please direct me to how should I go about using `addFlag` on a field in a fieldgroup context? Setting contexts through API is pretty new to me, however I managed to set all other necessary settings through `setFieldContextArray()` function. But the access flags are only applied through `$field->addFlag(128)` (when not inside fieldgroup context) - https://processwire.com/api/ref/field/add-flag/ I have tried (in a module install function): // Create a new fieldgroup $fieldGroup = new Fieldgroup(); $fieldGroup->name = static::NAME; $fieldGroup->add('title'); // trying to set flag to this 'title' // ...Adding other few fresh fields to fieldgroup $fieldGroup->save(); // Works fine. $field_title = wire('fields')->get('title'); $fieldGroup->setFieldContextArray( $field_title->id, array( 'columnWidth' => 50, 'useRoles' => true, 'accessFlags' => [64,128], // Doesn't work. 'addFlag' => 128, // Doesn't work. )); //$fieldGroup->getField('title',true)->addFlag(128)->save(); // Doesn't work with field->save() nor without. $fieldGroup->saveContext(); // Works fine with above setFieldContextArray() settings. // Adding it to a new template and saving. Works fine. $template = new Template(); $template->name = static::NAME; $template->fieldgroups_id = $fieldGroup->get('id'); $template->save(); The API docs seem a bit lacking in this department, very hard to figure out the whole flow ? Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Never really got my head around field groups and it shows, In my module uninstall I think I figured out how to delete a page, then a template and it's fieldgroup so that nothing gets upset. But for fields that belong to templates that need to stoick around I'm still abit stuck to how you would remove the field and when I try I still get: Unable to delete field '[field name]' because it is in use by these fieldgroups: 'user' is there a tutorial or best method for removing added fields, pages and templates?

Hi all, Just a quick question before I jump in and inevitably break the module I am working on. Is it possible to assign multiple field groups to a single template via the api? I am creating a whole bunch of fields, templates and pages on the fly at install and being able to assign multiple field groups to a template would be quite advantageous.

Hi all, Just another quick question, how would I select a previously created field group so that I can add it to a template using the API? All the examples I have seen thus far are creating the field group and adding it to a template at that point, I would rather create all my field groups beforehand and then assign them to their templates in batch.

The field is empty, the template has over 2 million pages. So of course caution is necessary... I can't try anything too crazy. When I try to delete the field in admin area, as soon as I click on the confirmation checkbox and submit, it goes straightaway (fraction of a second) to a Bad Gateway 502 (nginx) error page. I also tried the API solution outlined by kongondo here: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/7480-removing-a-field-from-database/?p=72039 - it does not work, the script just stops running (again very quickly) at the save() part. Also tried deleting from the $fieldgroups api variable instead of from $templates. Same issue. Here is what I am getting from debug=true: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 72 bytes) in /www/wire/core/PageFinder.php on line 306 Call Stack: 0.0000 242496 1. {main}()/www/index.php:0 0.0663 4512544 2.
