Gallery Field inside a Repeater field

Hi, I have two Gallery Fields.
One outside a repeater field and another inside.

With this code below from your Gallery Documentation (http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/field-types/gallery/) my Gallery works fine. This Gallery Field is OUTSIDE a Repeater Field:

	<?php 
    $galeriafotosimage_ids = get_field('galeria_de_fotos', false, false);
    $shortcode = '[portfolio_slideshow slideheight=310 include="' . implode(',', $galeriafotosimage_ids) . '"]';
    echo do_shortcode( $shortcode );
    ?>

But this Gallery Field below, that is inside a Repeater Field does not work.
This code is inside a Repeater Loop.

			<?php 
    $image_ids = get_field('fotos_da_obra', false, false);
    $shortcode2 = '[portfolio_slideshow slideheight=310 include="' . implode(',', $image_ids) . '"]';
    echo do_shortcode( $shortcode2 );
    ?>

When I use the code Above I have this Error in my Page:
Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Invalid arguments passed in /home/storage/0/7f/ab/site1372268450/public_html/wp-content/themes/costa-hirota/single-empreendimentos.php on line 244

Do you know How can I make it work when Gallery field is inside a Repeater field???

Thanks very much!!

HI again,

I have Also tried with get_sub_field, but not working:

		<?php 
    $image_ids = get_sub_field('fotos_da_obra', false, false);
    $shortcode2 = '[portfolio_slideshow slideheight=310 include="' . implode(',', $image_ids) . '"]';
    echo do_shortcode( $shortcode2 );
    ?>

I figured it out. Here’s how to use galleries inside a repeater field:

BASIC TIP: Do not use “get_field” or “the_field” inside a repeater. Instead use “the_sub_field” and “get_sub_field” instead.

The following code will work assuming you:

– Created a repeater called “gallery-repeater”.
– Created a text field inside that repeater called “gallery-name”.
– Created a gallery inside that repeater called “gallery-images”.

<!-- CHECK OUT REPEATER "gallery-repeater" -->
<?php if( have_rows('gallery-repeater') ): ?>

   <!-- CHECK TO SEE IF IT HAS ROWS IN IT -->
   <?php while ( have_rows('gallery-repeater') ) : the_row(); ?>

     <!-- DISPLAY THE TEXT-FIELD THEN ASSIGN OUR GALLERY TO VARIABLE $images -->
     <?php the_sub_field('gallery-name'); 

     $images = get_sub_field('gallery-images'); 

     if( $images ):?>
        <?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
	   <a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
	      <img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['thumbnail']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
           </a>
           <p><?php echo $image['caption']; ?></p>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
     <?php endif; 
   endwhile;
else :
// no rows found
endif; ?>

It’s not styled so it’s really bare.

! Careful not to mix up PHP (if then else) code and HTML code.

I also tried with “get_sub_field” but no luck. Code posted above didn’t work for me as well.

Anybody has solution?

<?php if( have_rows('gallery') ): ?>

<?php while ( have_rows('gallery') ) : the_row(); ?>

<h2 class="gallery-h2"><?php the_sub_field('gallery_description'); ?></h2>

<?php $images = get_sub_field('gallery_pics');

if( $images ): ?>
   
<?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
           
<div class="box">

<a class="boxInner" href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>" data-lightbox-gallery="<?php the_sub_field('gallery_group'); ?>">

<img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['thumbnail']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />

</a>

</div>
           
<?php endforeach; ?>

<div class="hr"></div>
   
<?php endif; ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php else : ?>

// no images found

<?php endif; ?>

I combined repeater together with gallery and it works like charm.

Don’t be mad its working a charm. Used this with OWL Carousel 2, really good.

Only posting the PHP so you can grab it.

// check if the repeater field has rows of data
if( have_rows('repetidor_imagenes') ):

  // loop through the rows of data
    while ( have_rows('repetidor_imagenes') ) : the_row();

// Start Loop
// Grab the subfield gallery array
//(Use the array return on ACF backend panel, you will have more control con the atts)
$images = get_sub_field('geleria_de_imagenes');

if( $images ):

$output .= '<div class="vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid prodvar imgal-container">';
$output .= '<div class="owlonlyfix owl-carousel owl-theme">';

  foreach( $images as $image ):

    $output .= '<div class="item imgal-img"><img src="'.$image['sizes']['thumbnail'].'" alt="'.$image['alt'].'" class="imgal-img" /></div>';

  endforeach;

$output .= '</div></div>'; 

endif; 
// End Loop

    endwhile;

else :

    // no rows found

endif; ?>

Cheers!!!
