    Hi,
    In the enclosed URL I'm sending the video showing the problem with saving and adding new field. Before I added the WYSWIG field everything works well. When I added that field I can't save the field and the custom field location is automatically changing after the save.

    I can provide you a credential.

    Hello Artur,

    You can try to follow this tutorial to increase the PHP setting max_input_vars to fix the issue
    https://metabox.io/wordpress-custom-fields-not-saving-increase-max-input-vars/

    Let me know how it goes.

    Thank you. Looks that it works properly.
    But that is only for security reason? There will be no problem with the performance when the number of fields increase?

    To build Fields groups separate like that:

    Or build one big Field group for post type?

    Hello,

    It's not for a security reason, just the limitation of a PHP setting and you will need to increase this to allow more input variables to be saved.
    For the second question, it depends on your requirements. But I think you can use more field groups to manage the custom fields more easily.
