Hi,
Until today I was just using Pods in all my projects that required cpts and custom fields and I am actually pleased with it since never let me down, no matter how complex were the projects so far.
I just bought today Metabox and trying it in a test site. So far I am very happy with how it works and how everything is organized. Looks actually really good and a much more complete solution.
But while doing some experiences with the builder only i crossed with 2 situations i would like to point since im not sure if is intended or i am missing something:
- In a scenario where I change the post type slug I lose all the posts already inserted (actually they still on the db ofc, just not associated with the current post slug). In pods for example I can change the slug anytime.
I know this is not a ideal situation and is not suppose to change the slug just like that, but still I got curious about it because this means we have to be really careful with the names from the start. By change the slug I mean the post type name slug, not the rewrite slug.
- Other situation is for example when I want a custom taxonomy to have the url stacked with the post type url. I mean for example a post type named cars and a taxonomy named brand. I want that the taxonomy url becomes /cars/brand/. To achieve that I tried to rewrite the taxonomy slug to “cars/brand” but when browsing a brand this leads to a 404 page, while browsing a car works fine. Again, this is something I usually do with pods and works perfect.
Thank you for your attention
