I am using the ACF Pro Repeater Fields for a project with the location as a Block. The block successfully loaded on the edit page but it is not being rendered to the front end. I will appreciate some help.

Here is the code I used to test the page Template:

//Register a Building Projects Block 
add_action('acf/init', 'my_acf_init_block_types'); function my_acf_init_block_types() {

// Check function exists.
if( function_exists('acf_register_block_type') ) {

     // register a building project block.
    acf_register_block_type(array(
        'name'              => 'building_projects',
        'title'             => __('Building Projects'),
        'description'       => __('A custom block for Building Projects.'),
        'render_template'   => get_template_directory() . '/template-parts/blocks/building-projects/building-projects.php',
        'category'          => 'formatting',
        'icon'              => 'building',
        'keywords'          => array( 'building', 'nodaco' ),
        
    ));
}

// Load values and assign defaults.

$sub_text = get_sub_field('project_descriptions') ?: 'Detail Project here...';

?>

echo($sub_text);

RESOLVED
The issues were much more beyond the ACF plugin. So, for anyone who may be having similar issues, I used the define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true ); in the`config.php file which revealed the true the coding issues in the function.php file and then the template. It took me a bit to clean up the codes and the fields were displaying as expected.
