This seems to work, thoughts?

<?php if(get_field('media')): ?>
                <div class="info news">
                  <ul>
                    <?php $rows = get_field('media'); ?>
                    <?php
                        $articleArray = array();
                        foreach( $rows as $key => $row ) {
                            $rows[$key] = $row['id'];
                            $articleArray[$key]['date'] = $row['date'];
                            $articleArray[$key]['file'] = $row['file'];
                            $articleArray[$key]['title'] = $row['title'];
                        }
                    ?>
                    <?php $rowCount = count($rows); ?>
                    <?php for ($i = ($rowCount - 1); $i >= 0; $i--) { ?>
                    <li>
                        <em><?php echo $articleArray[$i]['date']; ?></em>
                        <strong><a href="<?php echo $articleArray[$i]['file']; ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php echo $articleArray[$i]['title']; ?></a></strong>
                    </li>
                    <?php } ?>
                </ul>
        </div>
        <?php endif; ?>

Yes, correct. OK, well, I am using this instance in two places, but one place doesn’t have a huge list so I think for that one I will just show all and not paginate to simplify this problem a bit more. If I change the above to

<?php  if(get_field('media')) { ?>
<div class="info news">
  <ul>
     <?php  $counter = 0; ?>
    <?php  while ( have_rows('media') ) : the_row(); ?>
    <?php
      $data[$counter]['date'] = get_sub_field('date');
      $data[$counter]['file'] = get_sub_field('file');
      $data[$counter]['title'] = get_sub_field('title');
      $counter++;
    ?>
    <?php  endwhile; ?>

    <?php  for($i = 0; $i < count($data); $i++) { ?>
      <li>
        <em><?php  echo $data[$i]['date'] ?></em>
        <strong><a href="<?php  echo $data[$i]['file'] ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php  echo $data[$i]['title'] ?></a></strong>
      </li>
    <?php  } ?>
  </ul>

</div>

That works fine, however I would like to reverse the sort so the most current date is at the top of the list and not the bottom. Do you know how I might change this to do that? Thanks for your help.

Yea, me neither. So, what happens is if you go to /news/newsletter/2012 it just resolves back to /news/newsletter and only shows the current year. Not quite sure how to troubleshoot this, all I know is it seems that after WP 5.5 people started complaining online about this pagination issue, yet I am coming at this issue a few years late so am not finding a whole lot to go on here.

For each year:

Array
(
[0] => 2010
[1] => 2011
[2] => 2012
[3] => 2015
[4] => 2016
[5] => 2017
[6] => 2018
[7] => 2019
[8] => 2020
[9] => 2021
)

The last part (which appears to have been truncated on previous post. It is too late to edit it now)

<?php for ($i = 0; $i < count($uniqueYears); $i++) { ?>
                <a href="/news/newsletter/<?php  echo str_replace(' ', '', $uniqueYears[$i]); ?>/"><?php echo $uniqueYears[$i]; ?></a>
              <?php  } ?>

Is pagination via year (2021 2020 2019, etc.) that link to the respective year page. Just trying to paginate by year.

Sorry for the redundant post and edit, I noticed another truncated line in previous post as well, just going to re paste the full block below.

<?php  if(get_field('newsletter')) { ?>
<div>
  <h3>Newsletter</h3>
  <ul>
    <?php $urlSplits = explode('/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); ?>
    <?php $counter = 0; ?>
    <?php
      while ( have_rows('external-links') ) : the_row();
        $tempDate = explode(',', get_sub_field('date'));
        $mediaYears[] = $tempDate['1'];
        $data[$counter]['year'] = $tempDate['1'];
        $data[$counter]['date'] = get_sub_field('date');
        $data[$counter]['link'] = get_sub_field('link');
        $data[$counter]['title'] = get_sub_field('title');
        $counter++;
      endwhile;
    ?>
    <?php
      $keys = 0;
      $mediaYears = array_unique($mediaYears);
      foreach ($mediaYears as $value) {
        if ($value != '') {
          $uniqueYears[$keys] = $value;
          $keys++;
        }
      }
      rsort($uniqueYears);
      $data = array_reverse($data, true);
      if ($urlSplits[3] != '') {
        $currentYear = str_replace(' ', '', $urlSplits[3]);
      } else {
        $currentYear = str_replace(' ', '', $uniqueYears[0]);
      }
    ?>
    <?php  for($i = count($data); $i >= 0; $i--) { ?>
      <?php  if ($currentYear == $data[$i]['year']) { ?>
      <li>
        <em><?php  echo $data[$i]['date'] ?></em>
        <strong><a href="<?php echo $data[$i]['link'] ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php  echo $data[$i]['title'] ?></a></strong>
      </li>
      <?php  } ?>
    <?php  } ?>
  </ul>
<!-- PAGINATION LINKS -->
  <?php for ($i = 0; $i < count($uniqueYears); $i++) { ?>
    <a href="/news/newsletter/<?php  echo str_replace(' ', '', $uniqueYears[$i]); ?>/"><?php echo $uniqueYears[$i]; ?></a>
  <?php  } ?>
</div>
<?php  } ?>
<?php  } ?>

Ok, I changed it to this, didn’t break anything, but the pagination is still an issue, what am I missing here? This was working on WP 5.4 but 5.5 and beyond it is not.

<?php  if(get_field('newsletter')) { ?>
<div>
  <h3>Newsletter</h3>
  <ul>
    <?php $urlSplits = explode('/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); ?>
    <?php $counter = 0; ?>
    <?php
      while ( have_rows('external-links') ) : the_row();
        $tempDate = explode(',', get_sub_field('date'));
        $mediaYears[] = $tempDate['1'];
        $data[$counter]['year'] = $tempDate['1'];
        $data[$counter]['date'] = get_sub_field('date');
        $data[$counter]['link'] = get_sub_field('link');
        $data[$counter]['title'] = get_sub_field('title');
        $counter++;
      endwhile;
    ?>
    <?php
      $keys = 0;
      $mediaYears = array_unique($mediaYears);
      foreach ($mediaYears as $value) {
        if ($value != '') {
          $uniqueYears[$keys] = $value;
          $keys++;
        }
      }
      rsort($uniqueYears);
      $data = array_reverse($data, true);
      if ($urlSplits[3] != '') {
        $currentYear = str_replace(' ', '', $urlSplits[3]);
      } else {
        $currentYear = str_replace(' ', '', $uniqueYears[0]);
      }
    ?>
    <?php for($i = count($data); $i >= 0; $i--) { ?>
      <?php if ($currentYear == $data[$i]['year']) {?>
      <li>
        <em><?php echo $data[$i]['date'] ?></em>
        <strong><a>" rel="bookmark"><?php  echo $data[$i]['title'] ?></a></strong>
      </li>
      <?php } ?>
    <?php } ?>
  </ul>
  <?php for ($i = 0; $i < count($uniqueYears); $i++) { ?>
    <a>"><?php  echo $uniqueYears[$i]; ?></a>
  <?php } ?>
</div>
<?php  } ?>

Ok, I simplified this and got the random part to work but now it is pulling two identical random items vs. 2 different random items. How can I fix this?

function getLatestBooks() {
    if(get_field('books', 34)) {
        $rows = get_field('books', 34);
        $row_count = count($rows);
        $i = rand(0, $row_count - 1);

        echo $rows[$i]['sub_field_name'];

        $paperCounter = 0;

        while(has_sub_field('books', 34) && $paperCounter < 2) {
            $latestBooks .= '<p>'.$rows[$i]['cover'].'</p>';
            $latestBooks .= '<p>'.$rows[$i]['title'].'</p>';

            $paperCounter++;
        }

        $latestBooks .= '</ul>';
    }
    return $latestBooks;
}

Yea, as it turned out, this concept is a lot more involved than you might think at first glance. I ended up moving on from this for the time being and will circle back another time.

Took out $paperCounter for now to try and get 1 random one pulled and have it functioning with the exception of the get_image_with_alt line. Any clue how I could pull 2 randoms, and adjust the line get_image_with_alt to be random? Feel like I am getting close but need a bit of help.

function getLatestPhotos() {
    if(get_field('photos', 34)) {
        $rows = get_field('photos', 34);
        $row_count = count($rows);
        $i = rand(0, $row_count - 1);

        echo $rows[$i]['sub_field_name'];

        $latestPhotos .= '<a href="/photos/">';
        $latestPhotos .= get_image_with_alt('cover', get_the_ID(), '');
        $latestPhotos .= '<p>'.$rows[$i]['title'].'</p>';
        $latestPhotos .= '<span>'.$rows[$i]['name'].'</span>';
        $latestPhotos .= '</a>';

    }
    return $latestPhotos;
}

• in reply to: Get ALT tag for image inside repeater
• January 19, 2017 at 8:34 am

I think I figured it out. I was using ‘Image URL’ and needed to switch to ‘Image Array’ and change the code to the following. If someone could confirm I’m doing this correctly that would be great.

<?php while(the_repeater_field('banner')): ?>
<?php $image = get_sub_field('image'); ?>
<div>
    <h1><?php the_sub_field('heading'); ?></h1>
    <p><?php the_sub_field('description'); ?></p>
    <img src="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>">
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
