I am loving the ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) plugin repeater field but I have two pages in my WordPress site that have sections which share exactly the same data.
Obviously one of the key aspects of a CMS is that when such a situation as the one above arises, the client should only have to update that shared data in one place.
I’m wondering how I can do this though? I have found the below:
<?php
$include = get_pages('include=120' );
$content = apply_filters('the_content' ,$include[0]->post_content);
echo $content;
?>
This works for ‘the_content’ but I am not sure how to substitute it for my repeater field data which looks like this:
<?php
if( get_field('treatments' ) ): ?>
<?php
$i = 0;
while( has_sub_field('treatments' ) ):
$i++;
?>
<div class="treatments" id="treatment-<?php echo $i; ?>">
<img src="<?php the_sub_field('image' ); ?>" />
<?php the_sub_field('description' ); ?>
<a href="<?php the_sub_field('link' ); ?>">Read More ></a>
</div> <!-- treatments -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
The ACF functions accept a second argument which is the ID of the page you wish to retrieve the fields from. See the code examples in documentation.
