Repeater field ID

[opalepatrick]

How can I get the id of a repeater field from another page?

I want to do something like

if($pages->get(1034)->quotes->id == $i){
		echo "Yes";
	}

Where quotes is the name of the repeater field

You're checking if the id is the same as $i, but you're in no way looping through all the repeater fields, so this makes no sense in this state. If you try to get a specific repeater field you'd do it like this:

$pages->get(1024)->quotes->eq($i); //Get the $i's repeater field

Thanks LostKobrakai, I wondered about eq() - at the moment this is giving me an error - Error: Call to a member function eq() on a non-object

Any ideas would be great.

Strange. eq() should be available, as a repeater should simply return a PageArray, but you could also try get(). It may even be better than eq() as I'm not sure if the PageArray is indexed by position or by id. If that's not working try to check what type of object you're getting from your quotes repeater.

Quotes is not an object so the error makes sense. However I have double checked and quotes is definitely the correct name of the repeater field. Bit baffled.

Is the page id correct? What does quotes return instead of an object?

lol, I copied your code and the page id number was different. Feel like a complete (choose appropriate insulting word) - wrong page id - I never noticed! Now eq() works fine. Thanks a lot LostKobrakai
