The ultimate goal is to have a widget for Elementor in WordPress that can create multiple buttons inside of tabs. So I want a repeater inside of a repeater.
I do not have all the functionality or styling yet, just the very basic set up that lists each input on the page. The code I have does not work. The plugin displays correctly, however all the elementor controls disappear.
Here is the code:
<?php
namespace Elementor;
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
exit; // Exit if accessed directly.
}
/**
* Elementor iatabs widget.
*
* Elementor widget that displays vertical or horizontal iatabs with different
* pieces of content.
*
* @since 1.0.0
*/
class Widget_AltTabs extends Widget_Base {
/**
* Get widget name.
*
* Retrieve iatabs widget name.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @access public
*
* @return string Widget name.
*/
public function get_name() {
return 'alttabs';
}
/**
* Get widget title.
*
* Retrieve tabs widget title.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @access public
*
* @return string Widget title.
*/
public function get_title() {
return __( 'AltTabs', 'elementor' );
}
/**
* Get widget icon.
*
* Retrieve tabs widget icon.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @access public
*
* @return string Widget icon.
*/
public function get_icon() {
return 'eicon-tabs';
}
protected function _register_controls() {
$this->start_controls_section(
'content_section',
[
'label' => __( 'Content', 'elementor' ),
'tab' => Controls_Manager::TAB_CONTENT,
]
);
$this->add_control(
'list',
[
'label' => __( 'Repeater List', 'elementor' ),
'type' => Controls_Manager::REPEATER,
'fields' => [
[
'name' => 'list_title',
'label' => __( 'Title', 'elementor' ),
'type' => Controls_Manager::TEXT,
'default' => __( 'List Title' , 'elementor' ),
'label_block' => true,
],
[
'name' => 'list_content',
'label' => __( 'Content', 'elementor' ),
'type' => Controls_Manager::WYSIWYG,
'default' => __( 'List Content' , 'elementor' ),
'show_label' => false,
],
[
'name' => 'list_buttons',
'label' => __( 'List Buttons', 'elementor' ),
'type' => Controls_Manager::REPEATER,
'fields' => [
[
'name' => 'button_text',
'label' => __( 'Button Text', 'elementor' ),
'type' => Controls_Manager::TEXT,
'default' => __( 'Click' , 'elementor' ),
'label_block' => true,
],
],
'default' => [
[
'button_text' => __( 'Button #1', 'elementor' ),
],
[
'button_text' => __( 'Button #2', 'elementor' ),
],
],
],
],
'default' => [
[
'list_title' => __( 'Title #1', 'elementor' ),
'list_content' => __( 'Item content. Click the edit button to change this text.', 'elementor' ),
],
[
'list_title' => __( 'Title #2', 'elementor' ),
'list_content' => __( 'Item content. Click the edit button to change this text.', 'elementor' ),
],
],
'title_field' => '{{{ list_title }}}',
]
);
$this->end_controls_section();
}
protected function render() {
$settings = $this->get_settings_for_display();
if ( $list ) {
echo '<dl>';
foreach ( $settings['list'] as $item ) {
echo '<dt class="repeater-' . $item['_id'] . '">' . $item['list_title'] . '</dt>';
echo '<dd>' . $item['list_content'] . '</dd>';
foreach ($item['list_buttons'] as $button) {
echo $button['button_text'];
}
}
echo '</dl>';
}
}
/**

*

*/
protected function _content_template() { ?>
<# if ( settings.list ) { #>
<dl>
<# _.each( settings.list, function( item ) { #>
<dt class="repeater-{{ item._id }}"> {{ item.list_title }} </dt>
<dd> {{ item.list_content }} </dd>
<dd> {{ item.list_buttons[0].button_text }} </dd>
<# if ( item.list_buttons ) { #>
<dl>
<# _.each( item.list_buttons, function( i ) { #>
<dt class="repeater-{{ i._id }}"> </dt>
<dd> {{ i.button_text }} </dd>
<# }); #>
</dl>
<# } #>
<# }); #>
</dl>
<# } #>
<?php
}
}
Plugin::instance()->widgets_manager->register_widget_type( new Widget_AltTabs ); ?>
Here is an example of the error messages that I am getting:

I am pretty new to writing Elementor widget/plugins so I am stumped here. I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

Repeater controls cannot support a nested repeater
take look : https://github.com/pojome/elementor/issues/2955
My solution
Create two repeaters and bind them with keys. Good luck
Add to render
