Hello, I have a front end repeater field that has 2 subfields. I would like to add a button in the form that performs an action in the backend that automatically populates the repeater fields.
I have done this successfully with other field types. However I haven’t been able to do it with repeater fields.
I am using the acf/load_field and it works except that I have to click the Add Row button for the field to display the values.
You only need to dynamically load the repeater and not the sub fields.
// set load value for repeater
$repeater = array(
// a nested array for each row
array(
// a value for each subfield
// use field keys rather than field names
'field_0123456789abc' => 'value for field',
'field_0123456789abd' => 'value for field',
// etc...
)
);
