Support Forum
I had registered for my account on 13/12 and used the software for trial purposes. As a non-programmer, I had the intention of building front-end panels for woo-commerce and I realized that I need to be a developer to use meta box for the same.
Guess, I will have to use other means and cancel my meta box subscription for now.
Request you to do the needful. But I do look forward towards your advancement in this direction where, one can have a comprehensive form builder and list-grid builder for front-end for non-programmers.
Pls advise.

Hi Milind,
Thanks for your message.
Would you mind sharing what you're trying to do with WooCommerce? Since your message is a little bit unclear, I can't provide detailed guideline.
Regrading about coding, Meta Box can be used by non-coders with the help of Meta Box Builder extension or the documentation where you can copy and paste the code. The PHP part is for advanced things where you want to customize the plugin.
In case it doesn't work for you, I'm happy to issue a refund.
Hi Anh,
We are building woo-commerce multi-vendor sites (WP based) where we want to make control panels and search filters (front-end) for vendors and site owner (specific roles) so that they do not have to log-in to the admin panel (CMS).
For this we need to have tools (from non-developer perspective) to be able to get order lists, product lists and all related forms in the front-end. We are aware that the forms can be done through the front-end submission extension, but it caters only to full custom post-types. Will be glad to see how one can get full product post-type as a form to front-end along with query filters and order list.
We actually love Meta Box for the User Interface and snappy performance, but alas I am trying something for our team which should be more from non-developer perspective - to help us serve customers better in the long run.

Hi Anh,
Just to add we use Beaver Builder and Themer extensively for most of our projects.

Hi Milind,
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
Working with existing post types is like injecting Meta Box into something that already built. Especially in case of WooCommerce, which has a lot of business logic behind the scene. In my opinion, even if you have good collection of plugins, there are still some parts required custom coding.
We're going to add more support for BB and Themer in the next version. Mostly for the Group (repeater) and Conditional Logic feature in Themer.
Anyway, I've just issued the refund. Hopefully you'll be back to us in the future. And good lock with your project.
Hi Anh,
Thanks for the update. We are keeping a close track on developments at your end. Will surely be back once we are able to do most of the things by augmenting our own processes as well related to coding. We would continue to recommend Metabox within our ecosystem for advanced users.
Sincerely,
Milind Wagh
