Like let’s say I have a design where I will need the first five instances of a repeater. Then a visible code changes happens, then you show the next five instances. repeat until the rows are done.
<?php
$count = 0;
$your_repeater = get_field('your_repeater');
if($your_repeater){
echo '<div class="headerrow">header</div>';
while( have_rows('your_repeater') ): the_row();
$count++;
$my_field = get_sub_field('my_field');
echo '<div class="row">'.$my_field.'</div>';
if ($count % 5 == 0) {
echo '<div class="specialrow">subheader</div>';
}
endwhile;
}
?>
with that code every 5 row a additional row is added (always the same)
if you need each 5 row totally different code, replace
if ($count % 5 == 0) with if ($count == 5) and add a if-loop for each additional 5 rows
Not quite what I meant.
What I need to be able to do is get the first five rows of a repeater, repeat the first five rows of that repeater in a different format, then do the next five rows and repeat the next five rows in a differetn format.
even than it is nearly the same. just more if loops. (or i misunderstand you completely)
if you need something around, use loop before my_field, and one after like my example.
without example what you like to do it is hard to see what i understand wrong.
could you provide a sample what code you use and what you expect for frontend.
Ok, this is what I mean.
<div class="tabz">
<?php if( have_rows('employees') ): ?>
<ul class="employees">
<?php $count = 1; ?>
<?php while ( have_rows('employees') ) : the_row(); ?>
<li><a href="#employee-<?php echo $count; ?>" style="background-image: url(<?php the_sub_field('photo'); ?>);"><div class="hover"><?php the_sub_field('title'); ?></div></a><strong><?php the_sub_field('name'); ?></strong></li>
<?php $count++; endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if( have_rows('employees') ): ?>
<?php $count = 1; ?>
<?php while ( have_rows('employees') ) : the_row(); ?>
<div id="employee-<?php echo $count; ?>" class="employee-bio">
<div class="row">
<figure style="background-image: url(<?php the_sub_field('photo'); ?>);"></figure>
<article>
<h2><?php the_sub_field('name'); ?></h2>
<h3><?php the_sub_field('title'); ?></h3>
<?php the_sub_field('biography'); ?>
</article>
</div>
</div>
<?php $count++; endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
I want to run both for every 5 rows
just to get sure. you wish:
<div class="tabz">
//ul with 5 rows employees
//div with 5 rows employees
</div>
<div class="tabz">
//ul with 5 rows employees
//div with 5 rows employees
</div>
...
and both (ul and div) use same repeater
it is possible but you need to rebuild/change your code.
you need to fill first all rows to variables or a array.
and use that to echo values. (here i use variables)
simple it would look like that:
<?php
$count = 0;
$list_employee = '';
$div_employee = '';
while ( have_rows('employees') ) : the_row();
$count++;
$list_employee .= '<li><a href="#employee-'; //whole code for li (no echo!, nothing outside php, get_field instead of the_field)
$div_employee .= '<div id="employee-'; //whole code for div (no echo!, nothing outside php, get_field instead of the_field)
if ($count % 5 == 0) { //each 5 rows echo ul and div
echo '<div class="tabz"><ul class="employees">';
echo $list_employee;
echo '</ul>';
echo $div_employee;
echo '</div>';
$list_employee = '';
$div_employee = '';
}
endwhile;
if ($list_employee){ //if all rows are done but 1-4 rows left, echo them
echo '<div class="tabz"><ul class="employees">';
echo $list_employee;
echo '</ul>';
echo $div_employee;
echo '</div>';}
?>
try to modify your code like above, just the whole one. this should work.
if not: show whole modified code and what the “error/problem” is.
