Hey Elliot, thanks for this push. Since I am using a checkbox which will pass an array instead of a single value, i used this:

// vars
	
	$includedCrossSells = get_field('ssm_cross_sells_list', $id);
	
	$crossSellTitle = get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_title', 'option');

	// find matching row
	
	if ( have_rows('ssm_cross_sells', 'option') ) {
		

		while ( have_rows('ssm_cross_sells', 'option' ) ) {
				
			the_row();
			
			if ( in_array( (get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_title', 'option')), $includedCrossSells ) ) {
				
				echo '<a href="' . get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_link', 'option') . '"><img src="' . get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_image', 'option') . '"</></a>';
				
				echo '<p><a href="' . get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_link', 'option') . '">' . get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_title', 'option') . '</a></p>';		
				
			}
			
		}
	
	}

This works, but what is interesting is that when i pass $crossSellTitle as a variable which takes get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_title', 'option'); as a value, instead of using the full get_sub_field('ssm_cross_sell_title', 'option'); it doesn’t work. Can you spot why that is?

Thank you so much
