Advanced Custom Fields Repeater Addon

Description

The Repeater field provides a neat solution for repeating content – think slides, team members, CTA tiles and alike.

This field type acts as a parent to a set of sub fields which can be repeated again and again. What makes this field type so special is its versatility. Any kind of field can be used within a Repeater, and there are no limits to the number of repeats either (?‍? unless defined in the field settings).

Template usage

The Repeater field will return an array of rows, where each row is an array containing sub field values.

For the best developer experience, we created some extra functions specifically for looping over rows and accessing sub field values. These are the have_rows, the_row, get_sub_field, and the_sub_field functions.
