OK. figured it out.
managed to change the dates to “pretty” and add the rest of the fields that i needed.
the months name titles working… but i made them in a stupid way.
maybe somebody can add a nice fix to it.
hope it will help somebody as it helped me.
<?php
$repeater = get_field('vacation_repeater1');
$order = array();
$now = strtotime("now");
$sortedDate = array();
foreach( $repeater as $i => $row ) {
$order[ $i ] = $row['start_date'];
}
array_multisort( $order, SORT_ASC, $repeater );
foreach($repeater as $row){
$theDate = strtotime(str_replace('/', '-', $row['start_date']));
if($theDate > $now){
$theMonth = substr($row['start_date'],4 ,2);
if (!isset($sortedDate[$theMonth])){
$sortedDate[$theMonth] = array();
}
array_push($sortedDate[$theMonth], $row);
}
}
foreach($sortedDate as $theMonth => $theDates){
//echo $theMonth . '<br/>';
if($theMonth == 01) {
echo 'Jan <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 02) {
echo 'February <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 03) {
echo 'March <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 04) {
echo 'April <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 05) {
echo 'May <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 06) {
echo 'June <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 07) {
echo 'July <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 08) {
echo 'August <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 09) {
echo 'September <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 10) {
echo 'October <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 11) {
echo 'November <br/>';
} elseif($theMonth == 12) {
echo 'December <br/>';
}
foreach($theDates as $theDate){
//echo $theDate['start_date']. '<br/>';
$date = $theDate['start_date'];
$date_tour = date_i18n("l, F j, Y", strtotime($date));
echo $date_tour. '<br/>';
echo $theDate['flight_to_time']. '<br/>';
echo $theDate['flight_back_time']. '<br/>';
echo $theDate['price_standart']. '<br/>';
echo $theDate['price_standart_plus']. '<br/>';
echo $theDate['air_company']. '<br/>';
echo '<br/><br/>';
}//$theDate
}//$theMonth
?>
Thank you James!
It works as i needed!
This will help a lot of ACF users.
the only thing i changed is 3,2 into 4,2 at line $theMonth = substr($row['date_field_name'],4 ,2); cause my dates appear as 20160412.
to finalize the code a question, how to echo the dates and title months to show as “pretty”?
i used before $start_date_pretty = date_i18n( 'l, F j, Y', $start_date ); but i don’t see how i can use that in this working code.
Thank you again
Thank you James for your replay.
sorry but i need a different kind of sort.
separate dates into months – so each month show its dates + month title.
sample:
March
23/3/2016
27/3/2016
April
12/4/2016
17/4/2016
also can you explain – echo $row['tr1_date1']; do i need to change it? cause i don’t get any results.
Thank You.
Thank you James
I have done the repeater sort. it sorts by date. and also hide the past dates…
but i need to separate the dates into months and hide past months –
this is the problem i couldn’t figure.
the code i used so far.
<?php
// get repeater field data
$repeater = get_field('vacation_repeater1');
// vars
$order = array();
if( $repeater ):
// populate order
foreach( $repeater as $i => $row ) {
$order[ $i ] = $row['start_date'];
}
array_multisort( $order, SORT_ASC, $repeater );
?>
<?php foreach( $repeater as $i => $row ): ?>
<?php
$end_date = get_sub_field('end_date');
$today = date('Ymd');
$get_startdate = $row['start_date'];
$start_date = (strtotime($get_startdate));
//use $get_startdate to order, and $start_date_pretty to output your date
$start_date_pretty = date_i18n( 'l, F j, Y', $start_date );
?>
<?php if($today <= $get_startdate ) { ?>
<ul>
<li class="flight_date_time">
<?php echo $start_date_pretty; ?>
</li>
<li class="flight_date_time">
<?php echo $row['end_date']; ?>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="clear"></div>
<?php } ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
