I have a metabox created on the settings page with a text field that supports cloning. I would like to call the values, entered on the settings page as teh Option-Values for an advanced checkbox in my plugin. Could you help me with how to do this?

			array(
				'name'    => __( 'Checkbox list', 'rwmb' ),
				'id'      => "{$prefix}partners",
				'type'    => 'checkbox_list',
				// I would like to call value 1, value 2 etc from the values entered on the settings page.
				'options' => array(
					'value1' => esc_html__( 'Label1', 'your-prefix' ),
					'value2' => esc_html__( 'Label2', 'your-prefix' ),

Hi, if you're using a simple cloned text field, then it has only values. In this case, I think it's best to use these values as both the value and label in the options of the check box list.

You can use a snippet like this:

$settings = get_option( 'option_id' );
$values = isset( $settings['field_id'] ) ? $settings['field_id'] : array();
$options = array();
foreach ( $values as $value ) {
    $options[$value] = $value;
}

// In the field
array(
    // Other options
    'options' => $options,
)
