Issue with conditionals in repeater

• aedandev

• April 7, 2016 at 3:33 pm

I am using acf v5.3.6.1 which has the repeater now built in.

I have 3 fields added to the repeater. 1x select box and 2x text fields. What I am trying to do is only show one of the text fields in the case the select box has a certain value. I have given the conditional logic to the text field ‘select equal to x’ however the text field still seems to always show?

Thanks.

Hi @aedandev

I’ve just tested it on my end, but couldn’t reproduce the issue you had. Could you please share the JSON export of your field group so I can test it out in my installation?

Also, ACF has version 5.3.7 now. Could you please update it?

Thanks!

not sure if that is how I should have shared it. Haven’t updated yet but hopefully will later today. You can see under the ‘call_to_action_buttons’ repeater there is the 1xselect box and 2xtext fields and the text field ‘button_url’ has the conditional relating to the value of the ‘button_type’ select box.

Hi @aedandev

I’m afraid I couldn’t import it. Could you please upload the file instead of copying it in a post? You can upload it by clicking the link button on the left or use a third-party storage service.

Thanks!
