Home › Forums › General Issues › Repeater field + Auto populate select
Hi,
Maybe it’s out of scope of support, but I will ask anyway 🙂
I have this: http://pastebin.com/9x9vftgi
It’s option page where you can add
1. Country
1.1. Cities (name)
2.2. Areas (name + image)
Everything is repeatable 🙂
So what I’m trying to achieve is
When user selects country, he then gets 2 select fields
1. Select Nearest City
2. Select Area
And I want to populate these select boxes with data from selected country only.
Here is screenshot of the field in admin: http://i.imgur.com/4SfF02c.jpg
Would appreciate if you could point me somewhere, because i’m stuck.

Hi @bobz
Thanks for the question.
Yes, it is possible, but it will not be easy.
May I ask where it is that the user will select the country? Is this somewhere on the front end of the website?
Hi elliot,
Everything is on backend, I have this custom post types with 30 custom fields.
If it’s to complicated I will remove city from it and make it input field, then i would have only Country and Area.
I always try to make more user friendly but then I put myself in trouble 😛

Hi @bobz
Can you please be more clear. What post types?
How do ’30 custom fields’ relate to this question?
Thanks

Hi,
Sorry for late reply.
I’m kind of to busy to think on anything else.
Anyway I have simplified things a little bit I will create special page for areas and special for cities.
Hi,
I’m not able to make this work.
I have added:
function my_acf_load_field2( $field )
{
$field['choices'] = array(
'custom' => 'My Custom Choice'
);
return $field;
}
// acf_load_field-{$field_key} - filter for a specific field based on it's key
add_filter('acf_load_field-field_520fa5c4c3ce6', 'my_acf_load_field2');
to my functions.php, but it doesn’t work.
I’m trying to populate select field:
<select id="acf-field-reserve_country" class="select" name="fields[field_520fa5c4c3ce6]">
I use ACF as a plugin.
Doing something wrong?
Hi @bobz
If you are using ACF v4 or above, you will need to change the filter name to this:
http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/filters/acfload_field/
acf/load_field/key=field_520fa5c4c3ce6
