  Hi there…

  I’m trying to create a php loop that cheecks if rows exist and if they do not display text such as ‘Sorry no rows’. My repeater is nested, meaning a repeater inside a repeater.

  Thanks in advance!

  Here’s the code I have thats not working…

  <?php if( have_rows('add_career_opportunities', 'option') ): ?>
  
  <div id="career-single">
  
      <?php while( have_rows('add_career_opportunities', 'option') ): the_row();
  
      //Variables
      $title = get_sub_field('job_title');
      $description = get_sub_field('job_description', 'option'); ?>
  
          <h2 id="job-title">
              <?php echo $title; ?>
          </h2>
  
          <p id="job-description">
              <?php echo $description; ?>
          </p>
  
          <h3 id="job-requirements-heading">
              Requirements
          </h3>
  
          <?php if( have_rows('job_requirements', 'option')): ?>
  
              <ul id="job-requirements">
  
                  <?php while( have_rows('job_requirements', 'option') ): the_row();
  
                  $requirement = get_sub_field('job_requirement', 'option'); ?>
  
                  <li>
                      <?php echo $requirement; ?>
                  </li>
  
              <?php endwhile; ?>
              </ul>
  
          <?php else:
              echo '<h1>Sorry, we are not currently hiring. Please check back often for new opportunities with DesRosiers Architects!</h1>';
          endif; ?>
          </div>
      <?php endwhile; ?>
  <?php endif; ?>

  Hi @robertrhu

  I have just tried a simplified version of a similar repeater loop and the if else conditional seems to work as expected.

  Would you mind sharing a JSON export of your field settings so that I can test this out using the same configuration?

  And a little additional info…

  1. Its not kicking an error
  2.Rather its simply not printing the <?php else code:
  <h1>Sorry, we are not currently hiring. Please check back often for new opportunities with DesRosiers Architects!</h1>
