I have a repeating field that I am displaying in a Fields and Text Block. The field usually has 3-5 items in it. I want to know if there is any way to add the word "and" before the last repeated item.

Example:
It currently displays like this:
...IPA, New England IPA, Pale Ale, Wheat Beer, Golden Ale.

but I want it to display like this:
...IPA, New England IPA, Pale Ale, Wheat Beer, and Golden Ale.

Thanks in advance!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

It will require custom shortcode. You can add the custom shortcode to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:

add_shortcode('show_repeating_field', 'func_show_repeating_field');
function func_count_rf_entries($atts, $content){
    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'field' => '',
        'post_id' => get_the_ID(),
    ), $atts );
        
    $values = get_post_meta($atts['post_id'], "wpcf-".$atts['field'], false);
$res = '';   
if(!empty($values)){
     $last = array_pop($values);
      $res = join(", ",$values )." and ".$last;
}
    

    return $res;
}

And you can call the shortcode as:

[show_repeating_field   field="field-slug']

Where:
- Replace the "field-slug" with your Types field slug.

You can add the above shortcode to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset:
