Hi! How would you add a repeater field entries via hook or filter?

Lets say I have 3 array.

column 1, column 2 and column 3.

How do i hook this 3 arrary to a repeater field entry?

I think this is possible since its possible to populate a select field options.

Any suggestion guys?

Hi @rovillesarate

Can you please describe with more details what you mean by How do i hook this 3 arrary to a repeater field entry?

This is not very clear.

Thanks

I am using gravityforms for my front end form. As we know, there is no seamless way of integrating acf and gravityforms.

Gravityforms does not have a form field like the repeater field of acf although they do use a list form field. But the list field differs with the acf repeater field. In order for me to save the list field entries to the acf repeater field. I need to use a filter to get the values of its list field and then store its values into an array.

so is there a way to put this value into the repeater field by using a hook or filter? like the update_field? but im not sure if this will work with a new post.

Hi @rovillesarate

Yes, you can use the update_field function to update a repeater field.
Please checkout the docs for update_field and repeater.

Thanks
