Add Fieldgroups To The Cheatsheet

[thetuningspoon]

This may not be the right forum for this... but I noticed that $fieldgroups are missing from the API cheatsheet. This is kind of important for developers since you can't create templates using the API without knowing about fieldgroups and how to use them.

It's ok, bu there's a official cheatsheet thread from back then https://processwire.com/talk/topic/681-processwire-cheatsheet/

I'm not sure why fieldgroups isn't in the docs. Ryan had some reasons I guess, I just converted his PW docs to a cheatsheet back then.

fieldgroups are basicly templates and are hidden as it's only needed for more advanced development and don't play a big role on the "front-end" usage of the API.

 * The existance of Fieldgroups is hidden at the ProcessWire web admin level

 * as it appears that fields are attached directly to Templates. However, they

 * are separated in the API in case want want to have fieldgroups used by 

 * multiple templates in the future (like ProcessWire 1.x).

 

After all I'm not against adding it if Ryan thinks also it should be there. Thanks for bringing this up.
