Thank you for clearing this out. I have wondered, because its hard to distinguish the different blocks from each other. I think the problem is that they are named by developers who think in programming terms which makes it confusing for non-programmers. The query-block is also a bit confusing.

Great explanation. I was going to keep adding ACFs. This will save me a lot of time, not to mention how easily you made the concept clear. Thank You.

What I love about you is that I didn't quite understand the concept of the repeater fields on ACF's website and I came to you for help, and I was not wrong :) Good job, sir.

In essence I agree with your explanation, except for the use of a custom field for grouping, best use a taxonomy for that, so food type and team type would best be hierarchical categories. You can apply the repeater field to a taxonomy.

We can use this plugin but we can also achieve this with ACF and adding display condition. And to add a custom post I generallprefer to use code snippet.

@PromovareUTOPIAN 9 ай бұрын

So I don't need acf I can just create code snippets with custom files and stuff like that,correct? Is there an open source option for acf or metabox?

I understand repeater field now, thanks. But can I connect it to Elementor somehow without third party plugins?

You will need ACF Pro, or Dynamic.ooo

@AllesKiten Жыл бұрын

Thank you for this explanation! So, the products name as well as all other details are part of the repeater field. Thinking about give-aways which can be assigned to main category and subcategory. Post type would be: Give aways Custom field would be: Main category (pens, sweets, paper products, electronics, give aways for children...) Repeater field would be: Products name, descr., article number, material etc. But where is now my subcategory (i.e. articles for school, toys... as subcategories for the "give aways for children"? It is like when the cheeseburger is not only in burger but also in, let's say, happy meal?

@websquadron Жыл бұрын

Yup, you've got it with the PT, CF, and RF. To have Sub Category it would just be another CF. So; CF1 = Burger CF2 may be the Sub-Category RF then follows.

how do we get repeater fields in the elemetor forms? is this possible using ACf or do we need another plugin? Well explained once again - thanks you

You'll need Dynamic.ooo plugin for that, or the ACF Pro plugin. I'll do a future video with methods of how to pull this through.

In theory this is making sense, but in practice I can't get it to work. I'm using Pods. I create the custom post type of Restaurant and within that post type I create a custom field called "Food Type". Is this a special kind of field or just a text field? From what I can tell, each repeatable field is independent of anything else. How do you get a group of fields to connect to Food Type? I think I'm missing a key piece.

@websquadron Жыл бұрын

In your scenario, the Post Type = Restaurant Name Custom Field = Food Type, and you may select Indian or Italian. Then the Repeater Fields are show regardless of the Custom Field picked but it means that you can keep adding the same fields. I may do a better video soon on that.
