I want to create a repeater field that displays the TEXT on my website but opens up the URL when the TEXT is clicked on.
URL: https://www.test-website.com
TEXT: Test Site
similar to the “Places To Visit While Staying At Swallowdale On The Norfolk Broads” list at the bottom of this page.
https://www.swallowdale-brundall.co.uk/norfolk-broads/
Is this possible please?
Thanks
Sure, I do this every day – use the “Link” element. It gives you the URL and the Title:
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/link/
<?php
$link = get_field('link');
if( $link ):
$link_url = $link['url'];
$link_title = $link['title'];
$link_target = $link['target'] ? $link['target'] : '_self';
?>
<a class="button" href="<?php echo esc_url( $link_url ); ?>" target="<?php echo esc_attr( $link_target ); ?>"><?php echo esc_html( $link_title ); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
Thanks, is there an example of how to use this with a repeater field please?
<?php if ( have_rows( 'my_repeater' ) ) : ?>
<?php while ( have_rows( 'my_repeater' ) ) : the_row(); ?>
<?php $url = get_sub_field( 'url' ); ?>
<?php if ( $url ) { ?>
<a href="<?php echo $url['url']; ?>" target="<?php echo $url['target']; ?>"><?php echo $url['title']; ?></a>
<?php } ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php // no rows found ?>
<?php endif; ?>
The same, just use “get_sub_field”.
