The ACF Repeater Field add-on is a plugin that provides a neat solution for repeating content on WordPress websites.

It allows developers to create a set of subfields that can be repeated multiple times while editing content.

This functionality can be useful for various content types, such as slides, team members, CTA tiles, and more.

The Repeater Field acts as a parent to a set of sub-fields, which can be repeated unlimited times unless specified otherwise in the field settings.

The ACF Repeater Field add-on is highly versatile, as any type of field can be used within the Repeater, and there are no limits to the number of repeats.

The ACF Repeater Field add-on comes with various settings that developers can use to customize the behavior and appearance of the Repeater Field. These settings include:

• Sub Fields: Defines the set of repeatable subfields.
• Collapsed: Enables each row to be collapsed by specifying a single subfield to display.
• Minimum Rows: Sets a limit on how many rows of data are required.
• Maximum Rows: Sets a limit on how many rows of data are allowed.
• Layout: Defines the layout style of the appearance of the subfields. The layout can be displayed in a table, block, or row format.
• Button Label: The text is shown in the ‘Add Row’ button.
• Pagination: Defines if the repeater should only load a set number of rows per page when editing the repeater in the admin. If disabled (which it is by default), all rows will be loaded at once.
• Rows per page: Sets the number of rows that are displayed on a page if the “Pagination” setting is enabled.

To work with the Repeater Field, developers can use several extra functions specifically designed for looping over rows and accessing subfield values. These include have_rows, the_row, get_sub_field, and the_sub_field functions.

Editing a Repeater Field is simple – developers just need to click the “Add Row” button to add a new row and edit the values of the subfields that are shown.

However, there are several tips and tricks that can make working with repeaters much easier, including using pagination to reduce the number of rows rendered at once and inserting or duplicating rows by hovering over a row and clicking the “+” or “Add Row” icon that appears in the far right of the row.

Reordering rows can be done by hovering over the row number on the left-hand side and clicking on the drag-and-drop icon or clicking the row number to reveal a number input if pagination is enabled.

Overall, the ACF Repeater Field add-on is a powerful tool for WordPress developers looking to create custom, repeatable content on their websites.
