    Hello Meta-Box-Community!

    Could you please include in one of the next updates a feature that, when you change a field ID or another ID in the MetaBox settings, automatically changes it in all necessary places in the database?

    Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me as described here in the database because I created separate tables for this data to keep the server load low later.

    https://metabox.io/changing-meta-box-field-id/

    What's described in this guide should surely be able to be integrated directly into the MetaBox without much effort, and that would really differentiate you from ACF, since, as far as I know, it's not yet integrated into them either, and that would save your users a lot of hassle and time forever.

    Best regards
    Matthias

    Hello,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    I will inform the development team to consider supporting the option to update the field ID in all places in the database.

    Let me know if you have any questions.
