    When I update the MetaBox AIO plugin, the update process does not finish and I get a fatal error.

    The error is:
    Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mb_register_model() in the file where I added the code to register a custom model.

    This is not the first time I get this error, and I need to create an empty function with the same name to bypass the error and restore the website.

    Can you fix this problem asap?

    Hello,

    This function is located in the file wp-content/plugins/meta-box-aio/vendor/meta-box/mb-custom-table/functions.php

    You can check if the file and function are there. If not, you can download the plugin Meta Box AIO manually from the My Account page and install it on your site to update the plugin.

    Or use the code to check if the function exists and implement the code, for example:

    if ( function_exists( 'mb_register_model' ) ) {
// add your code here
}

    Hi Peter,

    The problem is not permanent, as I said it happens during the update process of the plugin.

    So, I believe it is related to the update not the plugin itself.

    During the update, the plugin might disables all the child plugins (addons) which causes the problem.

    Yes, thanks for your details. But I think the update process would take a few seconds or less than two minutes to see the error. You can also check the function existed that I mentioned above to prevent this issue.
