## Description
**RepeaterKit** adds an independent, high-performance repeater field type to the
free versions of **Advanced Custom Fields (ACF)** and **Secure Custom Fields (SCF)**.
Build repeatable rows of structured content – such as FAQs, customer testimonials,
team rosters, pricing matrices, specifications, and project highlights.
### Why RepeaterKit?
* **Clean Single-Meta Storage:** Stores repeater data in a single clean, structured
postmeta record for high performance and zero database clutter.
* **Accessibility-First (WCAG 2.2 AA):** Built for keyboard navigation, screen
readers, and low-vision users. Includes accessible button headers, live announcements
via `wp.a11y.speak`, and keyboard-operable reordering.
* **Three Flexible Layouts:** Table, Block, and Row layouts designed to fit seamlessly
into the native WordPress administrative interface.
* **Extensive Subfield Support:** Supports Text, Textarea, Number, Email, URL,
True/False, Select, Checkbox, Radio, Color Picker, Date Picker, Image, File,
WYSIWYG Editor, Time Picker, and more.
* **JSON Import & Export:** Easily back up, duplicate, or migrate row data across
sites with one-click JSON export and import.
* **100% Free & Private:** No telemetry, no remote tracking, no external API calls,
and zero upsells.
### Developer-Friendly Template API
RepeaterKit includes a stable, documented, namespaced template loop API:
```
```
Alternatively, standard `get_field( 'faq_list' )` returns the complete formatted
array of rows.
### Disclaimer
RepeaterKit is an independent open-source plugin. RepeaterKit is not affiliated
with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), WP Engine, or WordPress.

## Installation
1. Upload the `repeaterkit` directory to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or
install directly through the WordPress Plugins screen.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Ensure Advanced Custom Fields (ACF Free 6.0+) or Secure Custom Fields (SCF) is
active.
4. Go to **ACF > Field Groups**, create or edit a field group, and select **RepeaterKit
Repeater** as the field type.
5. Add your subfields, configure the layout, and save.
## FAQ
### Does RepeaterKit require ACF Pro?
No. RepeaterKit works directly with ACF Free and Secure Custom Fields.
### Does RepeaterKit work with native have_rows()?
RepeaterKit uses its own lightweight, single-record database storage model rather
than ACF Pro’s multi-row metadata architecture. For optimal performance and zero
conflicts, please use `repeaterkit_have_rows()`, `repeaterkit_the_row()`, and `repeaterkit_the_sub_field()`,
or retrieve rows directly with `get_field()`.
### Are nested repeaters supported in version 1.0?
Nested repeaters (a repeater inside another repeater) are out of scope for the 1.0.0
release. They are planned for an upcoming release following dedicated performance
and UX testing.
### What subfield types are supported?
Text, Text Area, Number, Email, URL, True/False, Select, Checkbox, Radio, Color
Picker, Date Picker, Image, File (wp.media attachments), WYSIWYG (TinyMCE), Time
Picker, Date-Time Picker, Range, Button Group, and Link.
### Does RepeaterKit collect analytics or make external calls?
No. RepeaterKit makes zero external HTTP requests, tracks no telemetry, and respects
complete user privacy.
