I'm trying to find a way to hide some of the more advanced/rarely used options in a multigroup. I figured the easiest way to do so would be to nest a standard group inside the multigroup that is set to collapsed. However, I quickly found out this is not possible.

Are there any other ways to do this?

Cheers.

What do you mean by "a way to hide some of the more advanced/rarely used options in a multigroup" ?

PS: Multigroups cannot contain field groups. Too complex, not implemented, and I'm afraid it won't.

Just wanted to add that you'll have to use hook_form_alter() to change the look of the multigroups in the node edit form, or you can override theme functions used by multigroup to change the look in the node view. Choose the format that better fits your needs, then override the corresponding theme function. See content_multigroup.node_view.inc

Hi. Please could you post an example or code snippet of the hook_form_alter() to hide some fields in multigroups in the node edit form? Thanks
