A developer is working on our company website with Elementor. We have some custom content that involves the Advanced Custom Fields plugin and the use of repeater fields. We want the repeating values to appear in accordions – They are procedural steps that vary from entry to entry.
They are unable to get the repeater values to display in accordions natively using Elementor, so they’ve offered up two possible workarounds:
1. Insert more code to the Child Theme as [explained here.])
2. Buy the [Dynamic Content plugin](https://www.dynamic.ooo/widget/acf-repeater-fields/) that contains a widget that works explicitly to display ACF Repeater content in different ways, including the accordion.
I need to figure out how to direct them. I’m leery of adding yet another plugin to customize the content display, but at the same time, I’m worried about the future impact of adding more code to the Child theme (Hello).
Thoughts?

Go for option 1.
The less plugins the better. Go with option 1
Option 1. The fewer plugins the better.
No need to be worried about adding more code to the child theme. That’s what it’s for
Option 1, no doubt.
One correction, if someone is working on your website with Elementor they are not a developer. If they are a developer they would have created a custom theme using ACF blocks. I hope you are not paying too much if you are getting an Elementor site
