    Hi,

    Do you think it’s possible to increment a variable set with CCS?
    I need this inside an ACF [related]: 

    [related my_acf_relationship]
    [set id_count]0[/set]
    [here something magic to increment the var on each loop cycle]
    [pass vars]
        <a href="#{ID_COUNT}">My link {ID_COUNT}</a>
    [/pass]
[/related]

    Given i have 3 related items, it would return this: 

    <a href="#1">My link 1</a>
<a href="#2">My link 2</a>
<a href="#3">My link 3</a>

    I tried to use CCS [calc] without sucess.

    Thanks for your help!

  • Use

    
[set id_count]0[/set]
  [related my_acf_relationship]  
    [set id_count][calc][id_count] + 1[/calc][/set]
    [pass vars]
        <a href="#{ID_COUNT}">My link {ID_COUNT}</a>
    [/pass]
[/related]

    You have to set the id_count outside the [related]. If not, you always reset the newly calculated id_count for the next related to 0.

    Hi @polarracing,

    Thanks for your suggestion, well done!
    It works after properly fetching the variable: replacing [id_count] by [get id_count]: 

    [set id_count]0[/set]
[related my_acf_relationship]  
    [set id_count][calc][get id_count] + 1[/calc][/set]
    [pass vars]
        <a href="#{ID_COUNT}">My link {ID_COUNT}</a><br>
    [/pass]
[/related]

    Yeah of course it must get id_count
