Count acf repeater with radio value only

I’m wondering if its possible to get the count of a ACF repeater field only if its got a certain radio value ?

Currently Im using

$status = count( get_sub_field('sub_property_status') );

In my template file to get the number of repeated rows in my custom post. Works fine.

But in that custom post theres a radio button option with either “Draft Sub-Listing” or “Published Sub-Listing” to hide or show a curtain repeater row.

Ideally I’d like to be able to count the rows that have the “Published Sub-Listing” only.

Is this possible ?

Not easily. To do that you would need to loop over the repeater rows and get that sub field for each row and then add it to the count.

// instead of $status = count( get_sub_field('sub_property_status') );
$status = 0;
if (have_rows('sub_property_status')) {
  while(have_rows('sub_property_status')) {
    the_row();
    if (get_sub_field('radio') == 'published value') {
      $status++;
    }
  }
}
