Hi,

I have a CPT with a repeater field for testimonials. I’d like to display 1 testimonial at the top of the page and then somewhere else on the page to display the rest of the testimonials.

Hi @danielw

From the docs, here’s how to get the first row:

<?php
$rows = get_field('repeater_field_name' );
if( $rows ) {
    $first_row = $rows[0];
    $first_row_title = $first_row['title'];
    // Do something...
}

You could then use the following to access the rest later in the page:

<?php
// Check rows exists.
if( have_rows('repeater_field_name') ):

	$counter = 0;

    // Loop through rows.
    while( have_rows('repeater_field_name') ) : the_row();

		$counter++;

		if($counter != 1) :

			// Load sub field value.
			$sub_value = get_sub_field('sub_field');
			// Do something...

		endif;

    // End loop.
    endwhile;

// No value.
else :
    // Do something...
endif;
