Hi Hlias,

you may have multiple instance of one metadatafield. A good example in 
the default submission are the author and subject fields.

The metadata registry in [yourDSpaceURL]/dspace-admin is for managing 
which metadata schemas with wich fields are present. In a schema a 
metadata field (consisting of element and qualifierwhich might be null) 
must be unique.

As for input fields displayed in the submission interface, this can be 
configured via [dspace]/config/input-forms.xml. To have a repeatable 
field, you have to changed the <field> in the input-forms.xml setting
<repeatable>true<repeatable>

Example: the submission form author in the input-forms.xml

<field>
<dc-schema>dc</dc-schema>
<dc-element>contributor</dc-element>
<dc-qualifier>author</dc-qualifier>
<repeatable>true</repeatable>
<label>Authors</label>
<input-type>name</input-type>
<hint>Enter the names of the authors of this item below.</hint>
<required></required>
</field>

hope that helps

Claudia
