Reply To: Loop Repeater Based on Sub Field Values

I need another piece of help related to this code snippet.

I need to be able to add a header above this code snippet which has to be conditional based on having rows. I cannot have it in the ‘while’ section as the while loops through all the rows, not just the ones marked ‘functional assay.’

For the time being I have done this:

<?php
if(have_rows('field_name')):
   while(have_rows('field_name')): the_row();
      if(get_sub_field('sub_field') == 'functional assay'):
         echo '<h4 class="underline">Functional Assay</h4>';
break;
      endif;
   endwhile;
endif;
?>

<?php
if(have_rows('field_name')):
   while(have_rows('field_name')): the_row();
      if(get_sub_field('sub_field') == 'functional assay'):
         the_sub_field('sub_field');
      endif;
   endwhile;
endif;
?>

I’m using the repeater loop twice, and the first instance is basically a check for rows, shows the title then breaks after the first row to not show the title multiple times.I feel this could be done in a much cleaner way, but I am not sure how.
