FAQ
-
Does this unlock any commercial Advanced Custom Fields feature?
-
No. It is an independent field type built on the free plugin’s public API. It contains no third party commercial code and unlocks nothing.
-
How do I loop through rows in a theme template?
-
rptx_the_sub_field() escapes its output with `esc_html()`. If you need different escaping, use `rptx_get_sub_field()` and escape the value yourself. -
Can I get the rows as a plain array?
-
Yes.
get_field( 'my_repeater' )returns an array of rows, where each row is an array keyed by sub field name. -
Where is the data stored?
-
In post meta, written through the normal Advanced Custom Fields save pipeline as a structured array.
-
Can I nest one Repeatix Repeater inside another?
-
Not in this version. Nested repeaters are on the roadmap.
