Image field in repeater returns null in ProcessWire 3

[Pavle]

Hey all,

I have an image and text field in a repeater. When I iterate over repeater using foreach loop, image is not returned (null is returned instead), but text field is.

• Some (I guess) useful information:
• I am using ProcessWire 3.0.17
• Image field supports svg format (jpg in not returned either)
• Image filed is limited to one file and is without description
• Image field's format is set as 'single or null', but array with field->first or field->eq(0) also doesn't work
• Images are uploaded to server

I used the same approach foreach($page->repeater as $item) $item->image->url a dozen time before in older versions, so I wonder if something maybe changed in v3?

I ran out of ideas what could be wrong and what I need to change, so I hope you'll be able to help me

Thanks!

PS. I also noticed that I cannot add description to .svg images. Is there a special reason for this?

Same here!

Same here!

Did you perhaps find and solution to this?

No, but You can see that guys are working on this field:

Which version of PW do You have? Mine is 3.0.17. Latest is 3.0.18

[Pavle]

Hey!

I was using 3.0.17. I upgraded it to 3.0.18, but the problem still persists

Did you maybe use the 'Frontend editing' module? I installed and then removed it. But I am not sure if images were working before that, because I didn't have that part implemented yet...so basically I don't know if it has any relevance.

[Pavle]

Well, the workaround would still be to use 'normal' pages instead of repeater field, but it's not really that user-friendly for my case.

[chuguruk]

No, I didn't use that module, but I've installed FrontEnd User which is not working anymore I don't know why. 

I will wait for next version as my site is in early development.

@chuguruk, you have one recent entry in the FrontEnd User thread:

How to add/remove css classes to rendered form?

I want to change how it's rendering, I can hide <li> through css, but how to add another class to form input field? 

 

I would kindly suggest that you make another entry in that thread and let the developer know more about how that module is not working anymore.

I would if I was sure that this modue is causing problem, but as I wrote - "I don't know why", and @Pavle is facing the same problem with different module.

I have installed this module on different instance of PW 3 and all seems to work fine (althrough it's an upgrade from 2.7).
