 * Hey there,
 * thanks for great plugins. I just found out you also made one for sending emails
   after submitting ACF form, exactly what I need right now (I’m finishing frontend
   posting and was looking for a way to send notifications). Will jump into code
   of it right now.
 * I have a plugin suggestion and this is something I’ve been searching for last
   few weeks without any success, it was nowhere to be found, so if you like ACF
   and creating ACF addons, this is one that I think might be really useful to the
   community 🙂
 * None of the famous forms plugins work with Repeater field. None! Gravity Forms,
   Formidable Pro, Ninja Forms, Contact Form 7… I’ve tried them all, and bought 
   some of them, but no luck.
 * For example, FormidablePro supports frontend post creation out of the box, and
   you can assign any FormidablePro field to populate any ACF field. In combination
   with ACF , it’s 99% perfect plugin for frontend posting, because it supports 
   fronend posting out of the box, and works fine for almost any ACF field population.
   In new FormidablePro (ver. Formidable v2.0a that came out like 2 weeks ago) there
   is a Repeating Section field, which is totally the same as Repeater field, but
   you can’t use it to populate Repeater field in post – it doesn’t have that option.
 * Gravity Forms can also populate custom fields from frontend when creating posts
   and it’s also great but doesn’t have an option for Repeating Fields too. Maybe
   someone should create them as a Gravity Forms addon.
 * Maybe it’s even better approach to create ACF Repeater addon for any of those
   forms plugins, rather than creating addon for ACF that supports this. I don’t
   know, I’m just a frontend developer :/
 * So that’s just mu suggestion. This is a plugin that would probably be popular
   cause many people use Gravity Forms and FormidablePro (and other form plugins
   too), and it would be great if we could combine those with ACF for frontend posting.
   As I said, Formidable is already very good with that, but it doesn’t support 
   repeater field.
 * That’s just a suggestion. I know you do this for free, so it’s just if you find
   some time 🙂 Thanks for your work!
 * Nikola

 * Awesome!
 * Here’s an example of a similar subject where guy did this for Gravity Forms manually.
   I’m trying to replicate this, but it would be great if that could be done with
   a plugin, so that we can match 3rd party form fields population and ACF Repeater
   fields within admin, and we don’t have to do it manually with code for every 
   field.

 * And there are many other similar threads. It’s really a wanted feature 🙂
 * ACF is really powerful plugin and it can be even more powerful if it would work
   100% great with some form plugins! I think the community is getting there 🙂
 * Thank you once again! You’re doing some nice work here.
