  1. User clicks Latin DJ
  2. User is brought to DJ page
  3. DJ page loads a repeater that displays DJ’s with Latin DJs.

First question!
Why you need to redirect to another page after have been done a selection?

Why not doing all the processes on the same page, saving uneccessary loading times?

How can I retrieve the value from the button being clicked in the repeater? (or do I need to change my approach to retrieving such information?)
Second: If you want to generate a real customized and good working page, try to go the coding-way and using Wix-Data, or at least you can use the DATASET, but not connected through the PROPERTY-PANEL.

In this case you maybe will have a little bit more of coding work, but the result will be more satisfying.

console.log("Text of button clicked: "+$w('#djsCategoryButton').label+".");

All you will get here is the label of your button.

To solve your issue…you can try first…

$w.onReady(()=>{
	$w('#repeater1').onItemReady(($i, iData, index)=>{
		$i('#djsCategoryButton').onClick(()=>{
			console.log("Clicked-Data: ", iData);
			console.log("INDEX: ", index);
		});
	});
});

But there are of course better options.
