    Hi there
    I'm using MB for the first time but did some digging in its capabilities so far I like it a lot!

    I have the following problem:
    I created a custom field "ploegen". It's a select that gets data via the REST API from an external source:

    <?php
    if ( class_exists( 'RWMB_Field' ) ) {
        class RWMB_Ploeg_Field extends RWMB_Field {
          public static function html( $meta, $field ) {
          
            $club_key = rwmb_meta( 'club-key', ['object_type' => 'setting'], 'PSD Integrate' );
            $api_key = rwmb_meta( 'api-key', ['object_type' => 'setting'], 'PSD Integrate' );
            $api_secret = rwmb_meta( 'api-secret' , ['object_type' => 'setting'], 'PSD Integrate' );
    
            $curl = curl_init();
    
            curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
              CURLOPT_URL => "https://clubapi.prosoccerdata.com/teams/all",
              CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
              CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
              CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
              CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
              CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
              CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "GET",
              CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
                "authorization: $api_secret",
                "x-api-club: $club_key",
                "x-api-key: $api_key"
              ),
            )
            );
    
          $response = curl_exec($curl);
          $err = curl_error($curl);
    
          curl_close($curl);
    
          if ($err) {
            echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
          } else {
              $response = '{"content":' . $response . '}';
          
          }
          
          $data = json_decode($response);
          
          $dropdown = '<select name="Ploegkeuze" id="Ploegkeuze">';
          
          foreach ($data->content as $i=>$value) {
          
            $dropdown .= '<option value="' . $value->id . '">' . $value->id . ' ' . $value->name . '</option>';
            //echo $value->name . '</BR>';
          }
          $dropdown .= '</select>';
          
          
          //return sprintf($dropdown, $field['Ploeg'], $field['ploegid'], $meta);
          return sprintf($dropdown, $field['field_name'], $field['id'], $meta);
    
    }
    }
    }
    ?>

    I have added this field to my Gutenberg block:

    add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function( $meta_boxes ) {
        $meta_boxes[] = [
            'title'           => 'Wedstrijdkalender',
            'id'              => 'wedstrijdkalender-inhoud',
            'description'     => 'Dit blok geeft de komende 10 wedstrijden weer voor de geselecteerde ploeg.',
            'type'            => 'block',
            'icon'            => 'fas fa-futbol',
            'category'        => 'layout',
            'context'         => 'side',
            //'render_template' => get_template_directory() . '/page-templates/kalender_block.php',
            'render_callback'   => 'toon_kalender_block',
            'enqueue_style'   => get_template_directory_uri() . '/blocks/hero/style.css',
            'supports' => [
                'align' => ['wide', 'full'],
                'customClassName' => true,
            ],
    
            // Block fields.
            'fields'          => [
    
                [
                    'type' => 'ploeg',
                    'id'   => 'ploegid',
                    'name' => 'Ploeg',
                ],
                [
                    'type' => 'text',
                    'id'   => 'hans',
                    'name' => 'Hanzo',
                ],
            ],
        ];
        return $meta_boxes;
    } );

    but in the callback function, I can't read the field value (needed to get more external data via REST API:
    $ploegid = mb_get_block_field('ploegid');

    Due to this, the curl query can't be executed an no data is retrieved.

    I hope anyone here can shine some light on this issue...

    It appears my custom field isn't saved in the block:

    <!-- wp:meta-box/wedstrijdkalender-inhoud {"id":"mb-block-aed81d9a-f2b7-4e60-8bc8-4aa917b68c70","data":{"hans":"TESTJE"}} /-->

    Only a regular text field is saved. Tried with a custom html block but that's not saved in there either.

    When I add a "normal" select, it is saved in the block:

     [
                    'name'            => 'Select Advanced',
                    'id'              => 'select_advanced',
                    'type'            => 'select_advanced',
                    // Array of 'value' => 'Label' pairs
                    'options'         => array(
                        'java'       => 'Java',
                        'javascript' => 'JavaScript',
                        'php'        => 'PHP',
                        'csharp'     => 'C#',
                        'objectivec' => 'Objective-C',
                        'kotlin'     => 'Kotlin',
                        'swift'      => 'Swift',
                    ),
                    // Allow to select multiple value?
                    'multiple'        => false,
                    // Placeholder text
                    'placeholder'     => 'Select an Item',
    
                ],

    Saved block:
    <!-- wp:meta-box/wedstrijdkalender-inhoud {"id":"mb-block-bf398a9f-2c92-4b22-b00a-6678cac348ca","data":{"hans":"TESTJE","select_advanced":"csharp"}} /-->

    OK, perhaps it's still a bug what happened but I got things sorted out...

    Instead of creating an entirely new field type, I just created a regular select, filled it dynamically with the JSON data and now all is good!
