    With debug logging enabled every page is reporting these errors:

    Hi Peter,

    These errors happen because some meta box is mis-configured. Please check the code for meta box registration to make sure it follows the docs. These are usual problems:

    • Forget to return the $meta_boxes variable from the callback for the rwmb_meta_boxes filter.
    • Forget to add fields to the meta boxes.

    Hi,

    For point 1, I was following your example here - and it would presumably not be possible to return the $meta_boxes variable as we've called die/exit.

    And I'm sorry but I don't understand your second point - I copied and pasted the output from the builder into my functions.php and then deleted the fieldset from the builder. How could I be missing fields? I'll delete everything and slowly reintroduce things to see if I can narrow the problem down.

    Thanks,
    Pete

    All of the above errors occurred because there was an element missing from the properties array: 'fields' => array():

    
    $meta_boxes[] = array (
        'title' => 'Log Book',
        'id' => 'log-book',
        'post_types' => array(
            0 => 'log_book',
        ),
        'context' => 'normal',
        'priority' => 'high',
    'fields' => array()
    );

    I had an empty meta-box configured, as I wanted to use the front-end form for this type but only for the default WordPress editor/title.

    Hi Peter,

    Glad that you found the problem. That's what I said in the previous comment. However, I've added a simple check for the Meta Box plugin that allows you to have a meta box with no fields. Try it here.
