You can paste in a rgba value into the existing color picker as well. Works just fine.

Hey ech,

I managed to find a workaround shortly after posting to your own question, here’s the link: http://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/get_field-after-update_sub_field-gets-old-values/

My workaround method involves updating the lists field after setting the $list during the foreach. This way you you’re not forced in using WP code to access updated ACF repeater data.

Hey John,

Please ignore my rambling up the top. I didn’t realize you were meant to use Field keys, which wasn’t apparent as they were hidden away by default. I had figured this out shortly after posting the above.

Thanks for the help either way! 🙂

Help, Hilfe, Upomoc! 🙂

I did manage to find a temp. workaround for this issue by setting $list[ $key ]['field'] = 0 within the foreach and then updating the repeater i.e. update_field('lists', $lists, $post->ID) before retrieving it again. Not exactly an optimal solution though.

I’ve got the exact same issue here.

I have a update_sub_field inside a foreach after which I do a get_field of the repeater right after the update, but it still has the old values even though the update_sub_field did indeed update everything correctly.

Not sure why ACF get_field is still getting old values. Thanks for any help!

E.g.

$lists = get_field('lists', $post->ID); // repeater field

foreach ($lists as $key => $list) {
    update_sub_field(array('lists', $key, 'field'), 0, $post->ID); // switch from '1' to '0'
}

$lists = get_field('lists', $post->ID);

var_dump($lists);

// outputs old values
