get_fields() breaking after upgrade to ACF PRO on repeater field

  • Here’s the stack trace, looks like the array isn’t getting passed into the array_keys call:

    #1 /Users/mhplummer/Sites/afam-dev/public/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/pro/fields/repeater.php(522): array_keys('2')
    #2 [internal function]: acf_field_repeater->format_value('2', 165, Array)

    any ideas?

  • Hi @DiNovi

    Thanks for the info. If you enable DEBUG_MODE in your wp-config.php file, do you see any errors which using the get_fields() function?

    You mentioned that it is breaking, but what does that exactly mean?

  • I am experiencing same issue.

    get_fields( ID_OF_POST );

    If there is a repeater field in the fields I am trying to get I get 2 warnings, and the field with that repeater field returns the number of items instead of the array of items like it should.

    Here are the warnings:
    array_keys() expects parameter 1 to be array, string given in /wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/pro/fields/repeater.php on line 522
    Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/pro/fields/repeater.php on line 522

    hopefully this gives more clarification.

  • I found the issue. This happens when the main repeaters sub field has the same field name

  • Hi guys.

    Thanks for all the info in this thread. I’ve done some testing and believe I have found the problem and fixed it!

    Please find bellow a re-written get_field_objects function which will fix the issue. Please copy / paste this over the origional function found in the api/api-template.php file.

    
    /*
    *  get_field_objects()
    *
    *  This function will return an array containing all the custom field objects for a specific post_id.
    *  The function is not very elegant and wastes a lot of PHP memory / SQL queries if you are not using all the fields / values.

    *  @type	function

    Please let me know how you go after updating the file.

  • Hey Elliot,

    I did a quick test and this seems to be working. Thanks for the great plugin.

  • Hi @jsweazy

    Thanks for testing! Great news

  • I have exactly this problem again. The repeater field is called “fields” – could that be relevant?

    Everything worked fine, but I cannot see what I could have changed that broke this.

    get_fields with this field returns the length of the repeater array rather than its content. Also, this seems to be happening for the field group attached to the options page

  • (even when I use the field_nnn notation, by the way)
