I’m trying to create a simple for loop to display the opening hours of a company in a template, using the code below. All info is coming from a structured field which works like a charm form both development and client (panel) part, but I want to simplify some stuff…
<ul>
<?php
$openinghours = $location->openinghours()->toStructure();
foreach ($openinghours as $opening):
?>
<?php
$weekdays = array(
'mon' => 'Monday',
'tue' => 'Tuesday',
'wed' => 'Wednesday',
'thu' => 'Thursday',
'fri' => 'Friday',
'sat' => 'Saturday',
'sun' => 'Sunday'
);
foreach ($weekdays as $shortweekday => $longweekday) :
?>
<li>Company is open on <?= $longweekday; ?> from <?= $opening->open_mon_from(); ?> to <?= $opening->open_mon_to(); ?></li>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
As you can see, this for-loop will repeat the $opening->open_mon_from() and $opening->open_mon_to() now each and every time, where the mon stands for monday. I’ve tried many several things, but I can’t get it wo work to replace the instance of mon by the $shortweekday string coming from the array.
Is this achievable at all, or do I have to manually write 7 instances of the <li> where I write down stuff like $opening->open_tue_from(), $opening->open_wed_from() etc?
Honestly, I think for this use case 7 lines of code are easier to write and faster executed by PHP than unnecessary foreach loops, whereas the inner loop is misplaced IMHO.
This is certainly not the right approach, I think. Could you please share what is stored in your structure field? And the blueprint for this field as well…
Sure thing!

So, as you can see here the panel user should be able to add multiple locations with multiple subs which have their own opening hours. Something similar I want to achieve can be seen here, but in this case I want to show the restaurant’s opening hours for both the kithen and the restaurant establishment (Rotterdam and The Hague). An example below, where the opening/closing times of the restaurants and their kitchens differ one hour, but that could also be two hours or even more. It’s just dummy content:

Hm, wouldn’t it make more sense to have a more open structure and maybe even a nested structure instead of fixed fields for every day?
openinghours:
label:
nl: Openingstijden
en: Opening hours
type: structure
fields:
open_title:
label: Location title
type: text
openings:
type: structure
fields:
day:
label: Day
type: text #or make this a select
open:
type: toggles
options:
- open
- closed
open_from:
type: time
open_to:
type: time
#etc
And then you don’t loop through a days array, but just through the structure
