ACF: The Wingman Your WordPress Site Didn’t Know It Needed
Categories

When designing websites for clients, especially those in niche industries like escort services, one of the biggest challenges is balancing intricate designs with user-friendly content management.
Escort sites often require dynamic layouts—FAQs, rates tables, galleries, and testimonials—crafted to meet specific branding and functionality needs.
This is where Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plug-in becomes invaluable. ACF allows you to create custom modules where clients only interact with simple form fields while WordPress handles the heavy lifting, applying all the required HTML and styling on the back end. One of ACF’s many offerings stands out as truly epic—the Repeater Field. I use this feature all the time, and it’s a game-changer for creating flexible and repeatable content structures.
What Makes the Repeater Field So Powerful?
The Repeater Field allows you to dynamically add, edit, and reorder content without worrying about breaking the design. For escort sites, this means you can:
- Create easy-to-manage FAQs where clients input questions and answers in plain form fields.
- Build galleries where escorts or site admins upload and describe photos.
- Develop pricing tables that dynamically display rates and services.
- Add testimonials to showcase client feedback with styled presentation.
- Display stats or unique content sections that change over time.
Example: A Repeater Field for FAQs
Here’s how you can use ACF’s Repeater Field to create a fully dynamic FAQ module:
<div class="faqs">
<?php if( have_rows('faq') ): ?>
<?php while ( have_rows('faq') ) : the_row(); ?>
<?php
$question = get_sub_field('question');
$answer = get_sub_field('answer');
?>
<div class="faq">
<div class="question">
<h2>
<span class="faq__text"><?php echo $question; ?></span>
<span aria-hidden="true" class="faq__tail"></span>
</h2>
<div class="faq__avatar">
<img src="/img/q.svg" alt="chat avatar">
</div>
</div>
<div class="answer">
<div class="faq__text">
<div><?php echo $answer; ?></div>
<span aria-hidden="true" class="faq__tail"></span>
</div>
<div class="faq__avatar">
<img src="/img/ns-avatar.jpg" alt="Nina Skye avatar">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
Breaking It Down
- Repeater Field Check:
Thehave_rows('faq')
function ensures there are FAQ items added via the Repeater Field. - Content Loop:
Thewhile ( have_rows('faq') ) : the_row();
loop iterates through each FAQ entry, pulling sub-fields likequestion
andanswer
withget_sub_field()
. - HTML Structure:
Each FAQ entry is styled with adiv
wrapper, separating the question and answer into cleanly styled sections. - Custom Styling and Accessibility:
- Classes like
faq__text
andfaq__tail
offer hooks for styling with CSS or JavaScript. - Aria attributes (
aria-hidden="true"
) enhance accessibility by hiding purely decorative elements from screen readers.
