They show adding repeaters to a POST type. However, I would like to add a repeater to my Front Page Template created in Cwicly → Themer → Add Default Template → Front Page.
The ACF fields do not appear on the bottom as they do when it is a post/page type.
Is this just how it is, or am I missing something.
If I cannot use ACF repeaters in the template, then how can I pull dynamic information and repeat that for a service section?
Sorry to hear you’re experiencing trouble with this.
Yes, you can use the Repeater block within the Site editor.
The ACF fields do not appear at the bottom of a template, as ACF is not currently FSE compatible.
So be sure to set a dynamic preview source which will allow you to display content from a dynamic source (a post/page where your repeater data has been filled).
I have recorded a short video that should help you achieve this.
Hello @Araminta ! No need to apologize, I’m just a natural idiot doing what idiots do
I see, so it’s a limitation of AFC. Hopefully they fix that soon!
I understand about the dynamic preview. Will creating a custom post type (CPT-UI → create CPT → my-cool-cpt) and then using the display content from dynamic source to point to “my-cool-cpt” work? Or will a query block be more appropriate until ACF gets FSE done?
Another option instead of of creating a CPT is to create an ACF Options page. This might make more sense if you are only going to have one set of values.
