Thx @mzagmajster, a) Yes, you are likely correct that this is best done as an enhancement to the Core rather than as a plugin, due to the 16 (or more?) points of dependency I mentioned above. In fact, one of the forum moderators even suggested that this might not be possible with a plugin [here](https://forum.mautic.org/t/adding-additional-groups-to-custom-fields/3035/5). b) I agree that a developer could create and maintain a plugin for most of the ideas in this “Ideas and Feature Requests” forum area. However I am posting to give the core maintainers a single place to refer to and debate this recurring request when considering inclusions for the Mautic core. On the other hand, if you think this can be done as a plugin and are offering to donate a plugin to the Community then that would be awesome! --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.mautic.org/t/custom-contact-field-groups-and-ui-tabs/23141)._
