acf_form – Add Parent Row ID to Field Labels

Hello,

I’m using ACF Frontend via acf_form() to display all my form fields on the front-end, which has several repeater fields.

I’d like to add the row number to some field labels, to better help users navigate the form, for example:

– Repeater row 1:
—- Objectives 1
—- Goals 1
– Repeater row 2:
—- Objectives 2
—- Goals 2

It seems I’m able to add some html to the field labels, so I was thinking of using js/jq to grab the parent repeater row ID and somehow inject it into the child field labels, but I’m not sure if there’s a better way.

Using JavaScript is probably the only way that this can be accomplished. You can use the ACF JS API to trigger actions to do the modification.
