ACF repeater field not displaying data

Displaying Data in ACF Repeater Fields.

The ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) repeater field is a powerful tool that allows you to create repeating sets of fields within your WordPress website. However, sometimes you may encounter an issue where the repeater field is not displaying the data as expected. This can be frustrating, but there are a few potential solutions to this problem.

One possible reason for the repeater field not displaying data is that you may have forgotten to add the necessary code to retrieve and display the repeater field values. To do this, you can use the get_field() function provided by ACF, along with a loop to iterate through the repeater rows.

Here’s an example code snippet that demonstrates how to retrieve and display the data from an ACF repeater field:

<?php
// Get the repeater field values
$repeater_rows = get_field('your_repeater_field_name');

// Check if there are any rows
if ($repeater_rows) {
    // Loop through each row
    foreach ($repeater_rows as $row) {
        // Get the sub-field values
        $sub_field_1 = $row['sub_field_1'];
        $sub_field_2 = $row['sub_field_2'];

        // Display the sub-field values
        echo '<p>Sub Field 1: ' . $sub_field_1 . '</p>';
        echo '<p>Sub Field 2: ' . $sub_field_2 . '</p>';
    }
}
?>

In this example, replace 'your_repeater_field_name' with the actual name of your repeater field. The code retrieves the repeater field values using get_field(), checks if there are any rows, and then loops through each row to retrieve and display the sub-field values.

Remember to adjust the code according to your specific field names and desired output. This code snippet can be useful when you want to display the data from an ACF repeater field on your WordPress website.
