I’m currently trying to update a sub field value inside a nested repeater and group field. I can’t really seem to figure out why this code is not working yet. Hopefully someone can give a clear explanation, this is my current code:

add_action('acf/save_post', 'custom_codeveld_acf_save_post', 20);
function custom_codeveld_acf_save_post( $post_id ) {
	$the_post = get_post($post_id);

	if( $the_post->post_type == 'post' ) {
		//Repeater field
		if( have_rows('codevelden', $post_id) ):
				while( have_rows('codevelden', $post_id) ) : the_row();
				//Group field
					if( have_rows('codegroep', $post_id) ):
							while( have_rows('codegroep', $post_id) ) : the_row();
									update_sub_field('codeveld', "Test");
							endwhile;
					endif;
				endwhile;
		endif;
	}

}

I see the nested repeater but I do not see the group field.
