Thank you for clearing this out. I have wondered, because its hard to distinguish the different blocks from each other. I think the problem is that they are named by developers who think in programming terms which makes it confusing for non-programmers. The query-block is also a bit confusing.
Great explanation. I was going to keep adding ACFs. This will save me a lot of time, not to mention how easily you made the concept clear. Thank You.
What I love about you is that I didn't quite understand the concept of the repeater fields on ACF's website and I came to you for help, and I was not wrong :) Good job, sir.
You make it so clear , Thank you, i wish you make a video to show Custom filed that will apear in shop page and single product page
I did a video last week on ACF and single product pages
@@websquadron yes i saw it , but i wish to see a video so i can display this ACF In the normal woocommerce shop page for example display guarantee period or Seller under each product tilte , i wish i could clear it
Those examples in an actual demo would have been a great addition to this video.
Yup, and there will be more detailed examples coming soon.
Thank you so much for explaining this!
Good job. all is much clearer now.
In essence I agree with your explanation, except for the use of a custom field for grouping, best use a taxonomy for that, so food type and team type would best be hierarchical categories. You can apply the repeater field to a taxonomy.
Good point :)
@@websquadron yes .. good point.... can you make a video on this showing both post type examples (Restaurant, Organisation) ??
Excellent! Thank you.
Thanks Imran. Very helpful.
Truly good content!
yep - nice and clear! Cheers.
Hello Imran could you please make a complete video on the example youve given (resturant)?
Maybe one day
Tks man! Was confused
We can use this plugin but we can also achieve this with ACF and adding display condition. And to add a custom post I generallprefer to use code snippet.
So I don't need acf I can just create code snippets with custom files and stuff like that,correct? Is there an open source option for acf or metabox?
Hello, i am adding custom field data to a product then ,the data appears on multiple products,data from product x is present on product y and vice versa,kindly help
That shouldn’t happen and I’d have to look to assess as part of 1-2-1 consultation
I understand repeater field now, thanks. But can I connect it to Elementor somehow without third party plugins?
You will need ACF Pro, or Dynamic.ooo
Thank you for this explanation!
So, the products name as well as all other details are part of the repeater field.
Thinking about give-aways which can be assigned to main category and subcategory.
Post type would be:
Give aways
Custom field would be:
Main category (pens, sweets, paper products, electronics, give aways for children...)
Repeater field would be:
Products name, descr., article number, material etc.
But where is now my subcategory (i.e. articles for school, toys... as subcategories for the "give aways for children"?
It is like when the cheeseburger is not only in burger but also in, let's say, happy meal?
Yup, you've got it with the PT, CF, and RF.
To have Sub Category it would just be another CF.
So; CF1 = Burger
CF2 may be the Sub-Category
RF then follows.
@@websquadron Thank you again!
@@websquadron It is not 100% clear, but I will check my "give aways"-structure with CPT/ACF the next days.
how do we get repeater fields in the elemetor forms? is this possible using ACf or do we need another plugin? Well explained once again - thanks you
You'll need Dynamic.ooo plugin for that, or the ACF Pro plugin. I'll do a future video with methods of how to pull this through.
Thanks a lot for that clear explanation, Imram. Hopefully, burgers are not... repeater meals for you. Or not too often 🤣
Well...... :)
@@websquadron 😁
In theory this is making sense, but in practice I can't get it to work. I'm using Pods. I create the custom post type of Restaurant and within that post type I create a custom field called "Food Type". Is this a special kind of field or just a text field? From what I can tell, each repeatable field is independent of anything else. How do you get a group of fields to connect to Food Type? I think I'm missing a key piece.
In your scenario, the Post Type = Restaurant Name
Custom Field = Food Type, and you may select Indian or Italian.
Then the Repeater Fields are show regardless of the Custom Field picked but it means that you can keep adding the same fields. I may do a better video soon on that.
Do Elementor support repeater-fields?
Not without an extra plugin like dynamic.ooo
The burgaaaaah is killing me :(
So... a repeater fields is an array of objects waiting to be filled, then
Yup
