Hi:

I could have sworn that there was a hook to access a field's data before saving it. But I can't find it right now. (I need to be able to access settings fields to encrypt them before they are saved into the database.) Is that possible and, if so, is there a code example showing 'before-save' field access anywhere?

Thanks.

Hi,

If you need to modify field value before saving into the DB, please use rwmb_{$field_id}_value filter or use rwmb_after_save_field action.
