Hi @beee

You should be able to do it by using a little bit advanced Javascript. Here’s an example how to do it:

add_action('acf/input/admin_footer', 'my_acf_change_repeater_label');

function my_acf_change_repeater_label() {
    
    ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    (function($) {
        $(document).ready(function(){
            
            // Hook when a new row is added
            acf.add_action('append', function( $el ){
                
                // Set default day and get the current total rows
                var currentDay = "Monday";
                var currentRow = $el.closest(".acf-table").find(".acf-row").length - 1;
                console.log(currentRow);
                
                // Convert current row to day name
                switch(currentRow) {
                    case 2:
                        currentDay = "Tuesday";
                        break;
                    case 3:
                        currentDay = "Wednesday";
                        break;
                }
                
                // Replace the label
                $el.find(".acf-field-123456789abc label").text(currentDay);
                
            });
            
        });
    })(jQuery);    
    </script>
    <?php    
    
}

Where ‘.acf-field-123456789abc’ is the class of the field you want to target.

I hope this helps 🙂
