    Is it possible to save the Checkbox List values as a Serialized Array in a single meta field?

    Hello,

    If you want to save the field value as a serialized array in the database, please enable the cloneable setting for this field. Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/fields/checkbox-list/#data

    Thank you Peter, but I don't want the user to be able to clone the field and add new values. Would it be possible to just add a "Save as Array" toggle in the field settings? It would be very helpful if you can also add this to the multi-select field as well. This would make these fields much more flexible.

    Thank you!
