Hello to everyone here, I’m trying to use the repeater’s Advanced loop but I can’t get to make it work. It shows properly in the Edit page but when I load the website it will just omit the whole row, asi if nothing is there. Here is my code:

<?php if( have_rows('mainnews_repeater') ): ?>

<!-- START Main News Container --><div class="row mainnews">

    <?php while( have_rows('mainnews_repeater') ): the_row(); 
            
            // vars
		$image = get_sub_field('mainnews_image');
		$title = get_sub_field('mainnews_title');
		$link = get_sub_field('mainwnews_link');
        $tag = get_sub_field('$mainwnews_tag');
           
		?>
    

 <!-- START 1st Main News -->
    <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 col-lg-3">
        
        <?php if( $link ): ?>
        <a href="<?php echo $link; ?>">
            <?php endif; ?>
            
            <div class="contimg"><img class="img img-responsive" src="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>" alt="Generic placeholder image"></div>
            
     <div class="conttxt">
                <h2><?php echo $section; ?></h2>
                <h1><?php echo $title; ?></h1>
            </div>
        </a>
    </div>  <!-- END 1st Main News -->

    <?php endwhile; ?>

</div><!-- END Main News Container -->

<?php endif; ?>

If I change <?php if( have_rows(‘mainnews_repeater’) ): ?> to inside <div class=”row mainnews”> , the page will at least show a gap where the row of cols it’s supposed to be but still it won’t show my custom fields.

I followed the documentation but I think I may be missing something very obvious but I can’t figure out what. I hope anyone here can give some advice, thanks in advance.
