    I have a checklist group that is set to be hidden when another checkbox (not in the checklist group) is not checked. This conditional logic works only if no checkboxes in the checklist group are checked. If even one checkbox in the checklist group is checked, the conditional logic breaks.

    Dear Justin,

    I've checked with and it works, can you please tell me what's version you're using and provide your code to register meta boxes and define conditional logic?

    Here's my snippet for example:

    
add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function( $meta_boxes )
{
	$meta_boxes[] = array(
		'id' => 'brand_product',
		'title' => 'Brands and Products',
		'post_types' => array( 'post', 'page' ),
		'context'	=> 'normal',
		'priority'	=> 'high',
		'fields' => array(
			array(
				'id' => 'show_checkboxlist',
				'name' => 'Show Checkbox List',
				'desc' => 'Show Checkbox List when this checkbox is checked',
				'type' => 'checkbox'
			),
			array(
				'id'	=> 'brand',
				'name'	=> 'Brand',
				'desc'	=> 'Pick Your Favourite Brand',
				'type'	=> 'checkbox_list',
				'options' => array(
					'Apple' 		=> 'Apple',
					'Google' 		=> 'Google',
					'Microsoft' 	=> 'Microsoft'
				),
				'visible' => array('show_checkboxlist', true)
			)
		)
	);

	return $meta_boxes;
} );

    Best regards

    Conditional Logic: 1.0.7

    Code:

    
// Projects
	$prefix = 'projects_';
	$projects_divisions = get_terms( 'projects_division', array( 'hide_empty' => 0 ) );
	$projects_categories = get_terms( 'projects_category', array( 'hide_empty' => 0 ) );
	$projects_categories_list = array();
	$projects_division_cats_options = array();
	
	// Get and store categories
	foreach ($projects_categories as $category) {
		$projects_categories_list[$category->slug] = $category->name;
	}
	
	// Create divisions and categories options
	foreach ($projects_divisions as $division) {
		$name = $division->name;
		$slug = $division->slug;
		
		$projects_division_cats_options[] = array(
		   'name' => __( '', $prefix ),
			'id' => $prefix . $slug,
			'type' => 'checkbox_list', // List used instead of single (preferred styling)
			'options' => array(
				1 => __( $name, $prefix ),
			)
		);
		
		$projects_division_cats_options[] = array(
		   'name' => __( '<div style="width:7px; margin-top:-4px; border-right:1px solid #aaa;">&nbsp;</div>', $prefix ),
			'id' => $prefix . $slug . '_categories',

		);
	}
	
	// Divisions and Categories
    $meta_boxes[] = array(

    Hi Justin,

    Thanks again for contacting us, I've checked your registered code and see that's a bug and we'll list in in our documentation shortly.

    That bug happen when you define two field with similar ID, for example, 'hello' and 'hello_foo' or 'hello*' (* matches any characters)

    To workaround, you can update:

    
'id' => $prefix . $slug . '_categories',

    To

    
'id' => $prefix . 'categories_' . $slug,

    Best regards

    Tan Nguyen
