ACF reapeater optimizations

  • Hi,

    About the John Huebner article https://acfextras.com/dont-query-repeaters/
    I am using repeater and i don’t see another way to do. So please could you tell me how to optimize ?
    Thanks

    Usage: Event with multiple date, hour , localtisation

    CPT EVENT
    ACF reapeater with DATE + HOUR + LOCALISATION

  • I would need more information.

    What types of fields are the sub fields?
    What values are stored in these fields?
    I don’t understand how you want to be able to search posts by these values, can you give more details?

  • i have a CPT event.
    A single event can have multiple date/time/localisation
    So i use ACF repeater for each event with line: DATEPICKER / TIMEPICKER / TEXT
    i am just wondering if there is a way to optimize my wpquery
    thanks

  • You’re going to need to explain to me what “localisation” means.

    A date picker + a time picker is just a date/time and could be converted to a standard MySQL date for searching. But I have no idea what localisation means of how this will effect how you are searching or what you war searching for. You’ll need to provide details on this.

    Also, how you plan to search these dates, will you be searching for exact dates or do you plan to look for dates > or < a date?

  • Localisation is simple text and i don’t search on it. I don’t search on time only on DATE.
    i use ‘compare’ => ‘>=’, and ‘compare’ => ‘<=’, in my query

  • If all you are searching on is the date sub field and not concerned about the rest then the basic information I gave in the post you references should be all you need. You only need to copy the date field to standard WP meta format.
