I have a relationship field that passes a post to a flexible content field. Now I have a block that’s a repeater and when run will only ever return one row even when I add more. Where am I going wrong?
My Code: –
<?php
global $post; // Querying outside the loop
$cta_block_item = get_sub_field( 'relationship_field', $post->ID );
if ( $cta_block_item ):
foreach ( $posts as $post ):
setup_postdata ( $post );
if (have_rows('page_builder')): // Get the rows of the Flexible content field of my target
while (have_rows('page_builder', $post->ID)):
the_row();
if (get_row_layout() == 'cta_grid') {
$cta_grid_select = get_sub_field('cta_grid_select'); // get the custom field I want to get
if ( have_rows( 'row') ) :
while ( have_rows( 'row', $post->ID ) ) : the_row();
if ( $cta_grid_select ):
foreach ( $cta_grid_select as $post ):
setup_postdata ( $post );
// Expected: I should see all rows of my repeaters content
// Current Result: Returns only one row from the repeater
endforeach;
wp_reset_postdata();
endif;
endwhile;
else :
// no rows found
endif;
}
endwhile;
else:
// no layouts found
endif;
endforeach;
wp_reset_postdata();
endif;
?>
I think that you’re problem is with multiple nested queries.
For example:
Main WP Query is run
==> A secondary query is run
====> A third query is run or you get a post from an ACF field
In these cases you cannot use the global $post or the functions setup_postdata ( $post ); and wp_reset_postdata();
The reason for this is the wp_reset_postdata(); always resets the post to the main query and not to the secondary post query. When dealing with post queries nested 3 or more deep you must use some other method of interacting with the post.
