Hello

I want to filter a Post Select with the actually author...
```
array(
            'name'        => 'Firma auswahlen',
            'id'          => 'trainer_firma',
            'type'        => 'post',

        // Post type.
        'post_type'   => 'per_trainer_firmen',

        // Field type.
        'field_type'  => 'select_advanced',

        // Placeholder, inherited from <code>select_advanced</code> field.
        'placeholder' => 'Firma auswahlen',

            // Query arguments. 
            'query_args'  => array(
                'post_status'    => 'publish',
                'posts_per_page' => - 1,
                'author'    => ???authorID???,

            ),
        ),
```
'query args' for author... If I try to write 'author' => 1, works fine... But I want to do this for any Authors...

I think: get_current_user_id();
But this is not working...

can you help me?

Thank you!

Do you mean query posts created by current user? Please clarify which user you want to set as author.

Hi Anh

"Do you mean query posts created by current user?"

Yes!

I think the problem is calling get_current_user_id too early. This docs page has an interesting comment:

Before the plugins_loaded action it returns 0.

So you might want to make some change to:
```
add_action( 'init', function() {
     add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'your_register_function' );
} );
```

Assume you have this code to register your meta box:
```
add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_register_meta_boxes' );
function prefix_register_meta_boxes( $meta_boxes ) {
    $meta_boxes[] = array(
        // Your meta box code goes here
    );
}
```
Then change it to:
```
add_action( 'init', function() {
     add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_register_meta_boxes' );
} );
function prefix_register_meta_boxes( $meta_boxes ) {
    $meta_boxes[] = array(
        // Your meta box code goes here
    );
}
```
