  Hi!
  I used the field "template" with params - 'repeatable' => true, for such purposes.

  Thank you for answer, but I cant't find how to use it in Simple Module.

  I found where to use repeatable parameter, but get another problem.
  When I save data in admin panel in my Events model, nothing go to the database.
  I'm use fuel cms version 1.3
  Here database field to store image galery:
  'slider_image' text NOT NULL
  And Events_model class:
  
  class Events_model extends Base_module_model {
  
  public $serialized_fields = array('slider_image');
  
  function __construct() {
  parent::__construct('events');
  }
  
  function form_fields($values = array(), $related = array()) {
  $fields = parent::form_fields($values, $related);
  
  $fields['slider_image'] = array(
  'display_label' => TRUE,
  'type' => 'template',
  'repeatable' => TRUE,
  'label' => 'Images Galery',
  'name' => 'galery',
  'fields' =>
  array(
  'image' => array('type' => 'image')
  )
  );
  
  return $fields;
  }
  
  }
  
  All other fields like title, date, text save normaly, problem only with slider_image repeatable field.
  
  Please help me to solve this problem with store repeatable field in database.

  You need to remove the line:
  'name' => 'galery',

  I do that and repeatable field becomes simple input field.
  Please tell me what do I do wrong?

  I solve this problem.
  The problem was that it is impossible to name a repeatable field came to an end in an _image or _img
  And thanks to Andrew, if don't remove 'name' property data don't save to database.

  I spend 2 days to find out why my code wasn't working. And nowhere its writen that repeatable field can't end with 'image', it would be great if you could idicate it somewhere in your User Guide.

  Actually, there is no such field type, like 'image'
  you can use 'type' => 'asset' for this purpose
  
  but if you strongly want to use type 'image',
  you you can define it in /fuel/modules/fuel/config/custom_fields.php
  // Asset field $fields['asset'] = array( 'class' => array(FUEL_FOLDER => 'Fuel_custom_fields'), 'function' => 'asset', 'filepath' => '', 'js_function' => 'fuel.fields.asset_field', 'represents' => array('name' => '.*image\]?$|.*img\]?$', 'type' => 'image'), );

  The template field type will post an array syntax of:
  $slide_image[0]['image'] = 'my_image1.jpg'; $slide_image[1]['image'] = 'my_image2.jpg' $slide_image[02]['image'] = 'my_image3.jpg'
  Because it is this nested array syntax, the data needs to be serialized or handled with a mode
