Return all field data from all IDs

Hi,

I use get_field('field_name') all the time (for my repeater fields) to return a multidimensional array containing all the field’s data for a particular page/post ID (it’s used within the loop).

However, I wondering if there’s a way to get an array of ALL the field data without specifying an ID. That is; the field is used in multiple pages and posts, can I get all of that data from all post IDs, rather than just for one particular ID?

Hi @Steve Holland

This is not possible via the get_field function in ACF.

I would encourage you to look at writing a custom sql query to find all these values

Thanks

Thanks Elliot, I was able to do that last night and it seems to work quite well
