Plugin Description

Raeen Repeater Field for ACF adds a native-feeling Repeater field type to the free version of Advanced Custom Fields (ACF). It stores data in the same flat postmeta format used by ACF Pro, so all standard template functions work out of the box.

Key Features:

• Drag & Drop Reordering: Intuitive row sorting powered by jQuery UI Sortable
• Row Operations: Add, remove, duplicate rows
• All ACF Free field types: Text, Textarea, Number, Email, URL, Image, File, WYSIWYG, Select, Radio, Checkbox, True/False, Date Picker, Color Picker, Link, and more
• Nested Repeaters: Repeater fields can contain other repeater fields
• get_field() compatible: Uses ACF Pro-compatible flat meta storage — get_field(), have_rows(), the_row(), and get_sub_field() all work natively
• ACF JSON Sync: Full compatibility with ACF’s field group JSON export/import
• REST API Support: Exposes repeater data through the WordPress REST API
• Gutenberg & Classic Editor: Works in both editors
• Multisite Compatible: Network activatable
• Internationalization Ready: Full translation support (text domain: repeater-field-for-acf)
• Accessibility Ready: Proper ARIA labels and keyboard support

Data Storage (ACF Pro-compatible):

Data is stored using ACF Pro’s flat postmeta format:

• {field_name} → row count (integer)
• {field_name}_{i}_{sub_field_name} → sub-field value for row i
• _{field_name}_{i}_{sub_field_name} → sub-field key reference

This means all ACF template functions work without modification:

`php

$rows = get_field( ‘my_repeater’ );
if ( have_rows( ‘my_repeater’ ) ) {
while ( have_rows( ‘my_repeater’ ) ) {
the_row();
$name = get_sub_field( ‘name’ );
}
}
`
