A repeater field with the same name as a field in the parent form overwrites the parent value. Why does the last name field, in the repeater, overwrite the value in the first parent name field? Can't get this to work.

fields:
    name:
        label: author.plugin::lang.input.name
        span: auto

tabs:
    fields:
        socials:
            type: repeater
            tab: author.plugin::lang.input.socials
            prompt: author.plugin::lang.message.add
            form:
                fields:
                    name:
                        label: 'author.plugin::lang.input.name'
                        span: auto
                        type: text
                        comment: 'author.plugin::lang.comment.social'

Shouldn't these things get sorted out automatically?

Hi Mattias,

I think this should work correctly, as it is the same as: https://github.com/Hambern/octobercms.company/blob/b3e31bfa123fb59e1ef55eb76a7de7d256970ed0/models/company/fields.yaml#L6

Could it be a problem in the database structure?

The error occurs when you make the field translatable. So fields that are translatable gets overwritten...
