Repeater field not working in archive-product.php

Hello!

I am trying to create an FAQ repeater to my archive-product.php (category pages) in WooCommerce + Storefront but unfortunately, it’s not working. It skips right over the “if” statement and just says “Come back later”. Am I missing something here since I’ve never come across an issue like this and didn’t find a solution for this from anywhere else?

Full code of the template:

<?php
/**
* The Template for displaying product archives, including the main shop page which is a post type archive
*
* This template can be overridden by copying it to yourtheme/woocommerce/archive-product.php.
*
* HOWEVER, on occasion WooCommerce will need to update template files and you
* (the theme developer) will need to copy the new files to your theme to
* maintain compatibility. We try to do this as little as possible, but it does
* happen. When this occurs the version of the template file will be bumped and
* the readme will list any important changes.
*
* @see https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/template-structure/
* @package WooCommerce\Templates
* @version 3.4.0

Hey Hirmuli,
have you found a solution? I feel the same way and the support doesn’t answer.

Greetings Nico

Maybe it will help you, I solved it. The individual vars must be called within the repeater. In my case:

		<?php if( have_rows('affiliatepartner') ): ?>
			<div class="external-links">
			<?php while( have_rows('affiliatepartner') ): the_row(); ?>
				<?php
					$produkturl = get_sub_field('produkturl');
					$buttontext = get_sub_field('buttontext');
				?>
				<a href="<?php echo esc_url( $produkturl ); ?>" class="button product_type_external" aria-label="<?php echo $buttontext; ?>" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><?php echo $buttontext; ?></a>
			<?php endwhile; ?>
			</div>
		<?php endif; ?>

The have rows loop must be inside of the product post loop

if ( wc_get_loop_prop( 'total' ) ) {
  while ( have_posts() ) {
    the_post();
    
    /**
    * Hook: woocommerce_shop_loop.
    */
    do_action( 'woocommerce_shop_loop' );
    
    wc_get_template_part( 'content', 'product' );
  }
}

or in the template part loaded by this

wc_get_template_part( 'content', 'product' );
