Hi blueawesome

You need to query the database, this article helped me: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/querying-the-database-for-repeater-sub-field-values/

My code then had something like this:

				<?php  
				$last = count($rows);	
				$i = 1; 				
				foreach( $rows as $row ) {				
					preg_match('_([0-9]+)_', $row->meta_key, $matches);	
					$meta_key = 'team_' . $matches[0] . '_select_staff';
					$user_id = get_post_meta( $row->post_id, $meta_key, true );									
				?>

Once I had the ID of the user, I could then do the following:
<h5><?php $user_info = get_userdata($user_id); $first_name = $user_info->first_name; $last_name = $user_info->last_name; echo "$first_name $last_name"; ?><?php #echo ' - '.$user_id; ?></h5>
I’ve no idea exactly what you’re trying to achieve but maybe the above will give you some pointers!

jeremey’s code is useful but if you’re using a repeater then you need to go the query route I believe
