Having issue while creating nested multi field in 6.3. The multi field structure is
Main Parent multifield has two child multifield. 
  1. Child multifield 
  2. Child multifield 

Below is the sample xml structure for multi field.I am getting Dialog rendering issue with below structure.one of the child multifield is getting displayed multiple times.

I referred multiple forums (like http://experience-aem.blogspot.com/2017/06/aem-63-touch-ui-nested-coral2-composite-multifield.html?m=1) but in all post there is only one child multifield inside a parent multifield.

@ganthira1, please change the formatting of your provided example as "CSS", as setting it to HTML or XML is buggy.

In the mean-time, I provided an example of a working multifield setup for TouchUI. Please analyse and review the structure of the XML and compare it with your own.

<navigationLinksMultifield jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield" composite="{Boolean}true" fieldLabel="Navigation Links" name="./navigationLinks"> <field jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container" name="./navLinks"> <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"> <linkFieldSet jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" jcr:title="Link" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fieldset"> <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"> <linkLabel jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield" fieldLabel="Link Label" name="./linkLabel" required="true"/> <linkPath jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathfield" fieldLabel="Link Path" name="./linkPath" required="true" rootPath="/content"/> </items> </linkFieldSet> </items> </field> </navigationLinksMultifield>
