How can I add multiple dynmic nested fields in the same form?
I have a registration form that allows tournament directors to select which fields they will request when participants register for a tournament. I followed a video to add dynamic nested form fields into a form using stimulus JS and it works great.
I am trying to add a second group of fields in another section fo the form. the form is broken into section, basic info, contact info, competition info, etc and I would like to have the ability to add custom fields to each section.
In the basic section it works great. I can add and remove custom fields, but when I added it to the contact section, even with change nested-form to nested-contacts, it just puls in the fields I create in the basic section. I can add and remvoe from either section but it just shows them all in both sections.
Here is my form as it is now. I still have to add the other sections but was trying to get basic and contact custom fields working before adding the rest of the form:
<h4>Athlete Information</h4>
<%= form_with(model: @event, class: "shadow p-3 mb-3 rounded text-dark", local: true) do |f| %>
  <%= f.hidden_field :athlete_info_complete, value: 1 %>
  <%= f.hidden_field :next, value: 6 %>
  <div class="row club_container">
    <div class="col-12">
      <legend>
        Check all the boxes next to the information you would like to
        request from your tournament participants.  Each area will have an option 
        to add custom fields.
      </legend>
      <br><br>
      <h4>Basic Information</h4>
      <div class="form-group row">
        <div class="col-md-9 col-sm-12">
          <label class="main">First Name
            <%= f.check_box :first_name %>
            <span class="w3docs"></span>
          </label>
          <label class="main">Last Name
            <%= f.check_box :last_name %>
            <span class="w3docs"></span>

          <label class="main">Date of birth

Here is the _custom_fields_basic.html.erb

This is the custom_fields_contact.html.erb file:

Here is the nexted_form_controller.js
import { Controller } from "stimulus"
export default class extends Controller {
  static targets = [ "links", "template" ]
  connect() {
  }
  add_association(event) {
    event.preventDefault()
    var content = this.templateTarget.innerHTML.replace(/NEW_RECORD/g, new Date().getTime())
    this.linksTarget.insertAdjacentHTML('beforebegin', content)
  }
  remove_association(event) {
    event.preventDefault()
    let wrapper = event.target.closest(".nested-fields")
    if (wrapper.dataset.newRecord == "true") {
      wrapper.remove()
    } else {
      wrapper.querySelector("input[name*='_destroy']").value = 1
      wrapper.style.display = 'none'
    } 
  }
}
And the nested_contacts_controller.js:
import { Controller } from "stimulus"
export default class extends Controller {
  static targets = [ "links", "template" ]
  connect() {
  }
  add_association(event) {
    event.preventDefault()
    var content = this.templateTarget.innerHTML.replace(/NEW_RECORD/g, new Date().getTime())
    this.linksTarget.insertAdjacentHTML('beforebegin', content)
  }
  remove_association(event) {
    event.preventDefault()
    let wrapper = event.target.closest(".nested-contacts")
    if (wrapper.dataset.newRecord == "true") {
      wrapper.remove()
    } else {
      wrapper.querySelector("input[name*='_destroy']").value = 1
      wrapper.style.display = 'none'
    } 
  }
}
If there is way to do it with a single controller that would be great, but I'm ok with having separate controllers for each section if necessary.
Thanks
