Nueva Custom Field Repeater Display (CFRD)

Nueva CFRD is a powerful Elementor extension that allows you to display Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Repeater data with complete design freedom. Unlike standard widgets that lock you into specific layouts, CFRD gives you a "Code-First" approach: you write the HTML, CSS, and JS to loop through your data exactly how you want.

🚀 Features

• ACF Repeater Support: Seamlessly pull data from ACF Repeater fields on Pages, Options Pages, or Taxonomies.
• Custom Loop Widget: A single, flexible widget to render your data.
• Code-First Control: Full control over the HTML structure, CSS styling, and JavaScript behavior.
• Dynamic Placeholders: Use simple handlebars-style placeholders (e.g., {{title}}, {{image}}) to inject field data.
• External Libraries: Easily load external CSS or JS libraries (like Swiper.js or customized libraries) directly from the widget.
• Frontend Performance: Optimized rendering with no unnecessary bloat.

📖 How to Use

1. Open Elementor: Edit any page with Elementor.
2. Add Widget: Search for "ACF Repeater Custom Loop" and drag it to your page.
3. Select Data:
   • In the Content tab, select your Repeater Field Name.
   • Choose the Source (Current Post, Options Page, etc.).
4. Write HTML:
   • Open the "Custom Loop Template" section.
   • Enter your HTML structure for ONE item. The widget will automatically repeat this for every row in your ACF Repeater.
   • Use placeholders matching your Sub-field Names:
     • {{title}} -> Outputs the text from sub-field 'title'.
     • {{image}} -> Outputs the URL of the image sub-field 'image'.
     • {{link}} -> Outputs the URL from sub-field 'link'.
5. Style & Script:
   • Open the "Custom Assets" section.
   • Add your Custom CSS to style the elements.
   • Add Custom JS for interactivity (sliders, accordions, etc.).
   • (Optional) Add URLs for external CSS/JS libraries if needed.

3. Accordion

HTML Template:

<div class="nueva-accordion">
    <div class="accordion-header" onclick="toggleAccordion(this)">
        {{title}}
        <span class="icon">+</span>
    </div>
    <div class="accordion-body">
        <p>{{description}}</p>
    </div>
</div>

Custom CSS:

.nueva-accordion { border: 1px solid #ddd; margin-bottom: 5px; border-radius: 4px; }
.accordion-header { 
    padding: 15px; background: #f9f9f9; cursor: pointer;

    allHeaders.forEach(header => {
        if (header !== element) {
            header.classList.remove('active');
            header.nextElementSibling.style.display = 'none';
        }
    });

    // Toggle current
    element.classList.toggle('active');
    let body = element.nextElementSibling;
    if (body.style.display === 'block') {
        body.style.display = 'none';
    } else {
        body.style.display = 'block';
    }
}

4. Slider (Swiper.js)

Prerequisite: Add https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/swiper@11/swiper-bundle.min.css to External CSS URLs and https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/swiper@11/swiper-bundle.min.js to External JS URLs.

HTML Template:

<div class="swiper-slide">
    <div class="slide-content" style="background-image: url('{{image}}');">
        <h3>{{title}}</h3>
    </div>
</div>

Wrapper Settings:

• Wrapper Class: swiper mySwiper
• Wrapper Tag: div
• Important: You also need the swiper-wrapper inside. Since the widget repeats items, use this trick:

Actually, for Swiper, the structure is specific (swiper > swiper-wrapper > swiper-slide). With this widget:

1. Set Wrapper Class to swiper-wrapper.
2. Wrap the widget itself in a Container/Section with class swiper mySwiper. OR, simpler Custom JS approach:

Custom JS:

// Initialize Swiper on the container
new Swiper('.mySwiper', {
    slidesPerView: 1,
    spaceBetween: 20,
    navigation: {
        nextEl: '.swiper-button-next',
        prevEl: '.swiper-button-prev',
    },
     breakpoints: {
        768: { slidesPerView: 2 },
        1024: { slidesPerView: 3 },
    }
});

(Note: Ensure your wrapper has class swiper-wrapper and the items match swiper-slide)

5. Data Table

HTML Template:

<tr>
    <td>{{title}}</td>
    <td>{{date}}</td>
    <td>{{status}}</td>
</tr>

Wrapper Settings:

• Wrapper Tag: tbody (or table if you don't need a thead)
• Wrapper Class: nueva-table-body

Custom CSS:

.elementor-widget-nueva_cfrd_custom table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; }
.elementor-widget-nueva_cfrd_custom td { border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px; }
.elementor-widget-nueva_cfrd_custom tr:nth-child(even) { background-color: #f2f2f2; }
