I believe you’re right, because I’m using the below code and not having to do any weird math like that.
//Add a row with the user's info as an admin to the Staff repeater field
//There are no rows yet, so we update the value of the repeater field to 1 to make a new row
//The value of the repeater field is simply a number representing the number of existing row
//If ACF ever changes the value of the repeater field in the database, this will need adjusting
if (get_post_meta($post_id, 'choose_tps_members')) {
$existingRows = get_post_meta($post_id, 'choose_tps_members', true);
if (have_rows('choose_tps_members', $post_id)) {
$selectedMembers = array();
while(have_rows('choose_tps_members', $post_id)) {
the_row();
$selectedMembers[] = get_sub_field('choose_member'); //user array
}
}
}
//Add a row to the repeater
update_post_meta($post_id, 'choose_tps_members', $existingRows+1);
//Update repeater row we just created with the Creator's info
$setUser = get_user_by('id',$creator);
$row = array(
'choose_member' => $setUser, //Creator
'make_admin' => array('Admin'), //Check the "make admin" box
);
//Update the repeater row
update_row( 'choose_tps_members', $existingRows+1, $row, $post_id );
//Once all fields validate, we can finally publish it
wp_update_post(array('ID'=>$post_id, 'post_status'=>'publish'));
