Reply To: Can you update a row in a repeater?

I’m having the same issue…sorta. I have the following field defined:

Through code, I am filling out the values of the repeater like so:

	$emergency_contact = array('emergency_contact_full_name' => $EMERGENCY_CONTACT_FULL_NAME,
								'emergency_contact_relationship_to_you' => $EMERGENCY_CONTACT_RELATIONSHIP,
								'emergency_contact_phone' => $EMERGENCY_CONTACT_CONTACT_PHONE

						);
	update_field('volunteer_emergency_contact', $emergency_contact, $theId);

No errors when that code runs.

But when I try to load the CPT entry, WordPress just hangs and nothing happens. If I remove that line where the code gets updated, everything works just fine.

Am I supposed to create something to update the row in the repeater beforehand? Am a bit confused.

Thanks in advance!
