Repeater with five fields generates sixten outputs

[felted]

Hi,

i have tow repeaters on a site with five fields.

 

foreach ($child->Portrait_Repeater as $data) {
					$i = 1;
					foreach($data as $person_data){
						$content .= $i.": ".$person_data."<br />";						
						$i++;
					}
	}

The foreach outputs sixten fields:

1: 1113
2: 1570437779-0381-1
3: 1
4: 0
5: 0
6: sort
7: 41
8: 41
9: 1570437779
10: 1570439027
11: 1570437833
12: max.jpg
13: Max Mustermann
14: Rektor
15: 1234 - 56789
16: info@maxundmoritz.de

Where are the first 11 fields coming from?

Thanks, Detlef

Behind the scenes, repeater entries are individual pages, so when you iterate over an entry (your second loop), you iterate over all the properties of the repeater page. You can see that if you change your code to:

foreach ($child->Portrait_Repeater as $data) {
					$i = 1;
					foreach($data as $prop => $person_data){
						$content .= $i.": $prop => ".$person_data."<br />";						
						$i++;
					}
	}

The solution is to remove the inner loop and address the properties by name instead, like $person_data->email, $person_data->position etc.
