I had my repeater running through another file, to get it to work I had to run it through the repeater again on the page I wanted the repeater to run in the file. Like this.
<?php if( have_rows('layout_section') ) { } else { } ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'layout-strips' ); ?>
No idea why this works but it does.
I would try emailing support as they have been really helpful to me.
