Show Page Title on First item in Flexible Content

Hey Elliot – We were using the following code to print the page title on the first content block within Flexible Content:

<?php
    global $acf_field;
        if($acf_field[0]['row'] == 0){
            the_title('<h1>', '</h1>');
        }
?>

But with the recent update to ACF, this no longer works, and actually prints out the Title on all content blocks created from Flexible Content. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Rich

Hi @jrstaatsiii

a smarter way to write this is to use a counter in your loop like so:

<?php if( have_rows('flex') ): $i = 0; ?>
	
	<?php while( have_rows('flex') ): the_row(); $i++; ?>
		
		<?php if( $i == 1 ): ?>
			<?php the_title(); ?>
		<?php endif; ?>
	
	<?php endwhile; ?>
	
<?php endif; ?>

Thanks
