Though the fieldgroup module was incorporated into CCK Core, fieldgroup doesn't display as an option for any content type. Fieldgroup isn't listed as a module for CCK. How can I create a fieldgroup?

The fieldgroup module is a part of the CCK tarball. If you upload those files to your website, the module will show up on your modules list along with any other modules.

I don't know where you are not seeing it listed as a module. If it is in your CCK folder, it will show up on your modules list. If you mean you don't see it on the Drupal.org downloads page, that is because the download is included in the CCK download.

And, obviously, once you see fieldgroup on your modules list, you need to install it before you will see any fieldgroup options.

The tarball CCK was downloaded on Oct. 26. Inside the CCK folder are the following files:

Folders:
po
test
theme

Files
content.install
content.module
content_admin.inc
content_crud.inc
content_pathauto.inc
content_views.inc
field.php
license.txt
nodereference.install
nodereference.module
number.install
number.module
optionswidget.module
readme.txt
text.install
text.module
userreference.install
userreference.module

Beside the CCK, I have downloaded and installed the zipcode, phone, date, imagefield, and link modules for CCK.

Where is the fieldgroup??

You downloaded the last 'official' release and fieldgroup was not in it. Fieldgroup is in the -dev release, the nightly snapshots. But this brings up an interesting problem because the way to use fieldgroup in the previous 'official' release was to get it from the separate fieldgroup project, which no longer exists. So it is chicken and the egg.

We need to get a new 'official' release of CCK that has fieldgroup in it. We're in the process of doing that, justing finishing up a few patches first, but we've left fieldgroup in limbo so we need to get a release out ASAP.

So I'm going to re-activate this issue as a reminder so it gets done.

Fieldgroup isn't present in the CCK 4.7.x-1.0 official release.

You need to download the development version:

CCK 4.7.x-1.x-dev

It contains fieldgroup.install and fieldgroup.module.

For the meanwhile: I've highlighted on the fieldgroup project page that the development version is needed.

Oops, by the time I'd posted my reply Karen posted hers changing the status, so my reply inadvertently changed it back to fixed--sorry for that.
