I need to copy a list from the parent site to a child site. I can copy everything fine except the repeating section.

The repeating section contains 2 fields: user role field and the user people picker field.

The section was saved as such in the parent site

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><RepeaterData><Version /><Items><Item><PMOName type="System.String">i:0#.w|domainfname_lname1</PMOName><Role type="System.String">Editor</Role></Item><Item><PMOName type="System.String">i:0#.w|domainfname_lname2</PMOName><Role type="System.String">Reviewer</Role></Item></Items></RepeaterData>

 

I copyed the  above value exactly to the child site. However when I tried to diplay the form, the role field is OK, but the name field is empty. 

I am wondering:

1. Why the same value is dislayed OK on the original parent site, but not on the copied child site?

2. Should I convert i:0#.w|domainfname_lname1 to profile ID like  '72;#fname lname1'? 

 

Thank you.

The repeating section field on the child site was created as Mutiple Lines of Text.
