I  have 2 forms:

  1. to capture entries
  2. to upload images with details related to the files uploaded ( i.e. dates and source detail of photos )

Users can use the 2nd Upload form to upload single or multiple files related to entries from the 1st form, the relation is based on a custom unique ID.  The File Upload field is also part of a Repeater field allowing users to Upload batches of files with attributes specific to each Repeated batch.  

I've been trying to develop a FF View to pull and display all uploaded files into a Grid.  The problem I'm having is that the files are listed by Entry_ID, and not individually. In other words Repeater and Multiple File Uploads are "grouped" and displayed in the same Grid Cell on my view.

How can I retrieve the images based on the Custom ID, as I think this is a possible solution to listing all images related to the Custom ID regardless of the Entry_ID through which it was loaded/created. 

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Hey, @Rudi JvR.. I've *very* late to the party here, but maybe this could help: create a view based on the repeater field and pull in any fields from the parent form, as noted in the documentation found here: https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/create-a-view/#kb-create-a-view-from-a-repeater
