Reply To: Options sub-page overwriting field values on other option sub-pages

Yea I thought about using the clone field prefixes to work around this, but thought I should report it here since it seemed like a bug to me.

I guess whether or not this is a bug is open to interpretation and Elliot will have to decide.

Personally I feel that an individual subpage should be treated uniquely from other sub pages. This might require that values from that subpage be retrieved a bit differently, like perhaps: the_field( ‘field_name’, ‘subpage-slug’ ), instead of the_field( ‘field_name’, ‘options’ ). Or maybe the_field( ‘field_name’, array( ‘options’, ‘subpage-slug’ ) ).

In the meantime I will work around this and leave it to Elliot and team to decide if this is a bug or a feature 😉
