ACF loop Repeater values with get_field

Question

I created a Custom Field with the Repeater layout to add some input text. I would like to display all the values. I found some code on ACF documentation but I can't understand how it works

<?php 
$rows = get_field('repeater_field_name');
if($rows)
{
    echo '<ul>';

    foreach($rows as $row)
    {
        echo '<li>sub_field_1 = ' . $row['sub_field_1'] . ', sub_field_2 = ' . $row['sub_field_2'] .', etc</li>';
    }

    echo '</ul>';
}
?>

I don't know how much fields I will create with the Repeater and I would like to loop all the values with foreach. Is that possible?

Thank you in advance

the code that you found will loop all the values from the repeater field, just change field_name with your field names (slug names) and it will work. — Christophvh
It doesn't works! :( I put my repeater_field_name: get_field('MY_repeater_field_name'); and my field_name: $row['MY_sub_field_1'] but it doesn't works. It returns me this: sub_field_1 = , sub_field_2 = , etc sub_field_1 = , sub_field_2 = , etc — Maki
maybe a stupid question, but have you added something in your post? because it seems like it works but there is no value in the fields? — Christophvh
Yes, sure. I put some values in the custom fields. With the repeater I create two custom fields.. Is there another way to display these values? — Maki
I found also this code: link Under Working with Array values. I put my Repeater_field_name and it returns me this: array(2) { [0]=> array(1) { ["testo"]=> string(10) "My Value 1" } [1]=> array(1) { ["testo"]=> string(10) "My Value 2" } } So can this code help me? — Maki

Foreach version:

<?php 

$rows = get_field('repeater');
if($rows)
{
    echo '<ul>';

    foreach($rows as $row)
    {
        echo '<li>sub_field_1 = ' . $row['text'] . '</li>';
    }

    echo '</ul>';
}

While version:

<?php

// check if the repeater field has rows of data
if( have_rows('repeater') ):

    // loop through the rows of data
    while ( have_rows('repeater') ) : the_row();

        // display a sub field value
        the_sub_field('text');

    endwhile;

else :

    echo 'nothing found';

endif;

?>
