Hello I am using PHPDOCX advanced version 14. Running into issue with loops and clone blocks and replacing texts. 

Here is my Template

${BLOCK_COT_PARCEL}
${PARCEL}

        
        ${BLOCK_COT_RECORD}

    DEED TYPE:                      ${DEED}
        GRANTEE:                            ${GRANTEE}
        GRANTOR:                            ${GRANTOR}
        DATE EXECUTED:                  ${DATE_EXECUTED}
        DATE RECORDED:                  ${DATE_RECORDED}
        INSTRUMENT NO:                  ${INSTRUMENT_NO}


${BLOCK_COT_RECORD}

        
${BLOCK_COT_PARCEL}

Here is my code

    {
        $docx = new CreateDocxFromTemplate(public_path().'/template.docx', array('parseMode' => true));
        $docx->setTemplateSymbol('${', '}');
        $faker = Factory::create();
        $parcel = array(
            array(
                'PARCEL' => '1111-1111',
                'COT' => array(
                    array(
                        'DEED' => 'ab',

                    ),
                )
            ),

                )
            ),
            array(
                'PARCEL' => '1111-3333',
            ),

        );
        $options = array('parseLineBreaks' => true, 'firstMatch' => true);

        foreach ($parcel as $p) {
            $docx->cloneBlock('COT_PARCEL', 1, array(), array('removeBlockPlaceholder' => true));
            $docx->replaceVariableByText($p, $options);
            if (!empty($p['COT'])) {
                foreach ($p['COT'] as $cot) {
                    $docx->cloneBlock('COT_RECORD', 1, array(), array('removeBlockPlaceholder' => true));
                    $docx->replaceVariableByText($cot, $options);
                }
            }

        }
        $docx->deleteTemplateBlock('COT_PARCEL');
        $docx->deleteTemplateBlock('COT_RECORD');



        $docx->createDocx('example_replaceVariableByText_1');

    }
}

Here is the Output:

Could you please help me out on why the above code doesnt work. I have been racking my brain for a bit now and the loops and cloneblocks doesnt seem to work. If you can provide some guidance that would be great
