Hello,

I build my metaboxes with MB builder.

In my MB, I have selected some fields to be displayed in the admin column but they're not. I looked at the php code which can be generated and it seems ok.

I follow the documentation. I don't understand why it does not. I use a very basic theme (Hello theme). But tried as well with 21.

Hi,

Can you please share the PHP code generated or some screenshots of the field settings?

Hi,

The columns Title has the ID title, it should be

                'admin_columns'     => [
                    'position'   => 'before title',
                    'searchable' => true,
                ],

The builder also suggests the default column IDs of the post title, author, tag, categories ...

OK. Understood. It works when I add the parameter "location".
I only use the builder to create my metabox. You should add an asterix to tell the parameter "column position" is mandatory.

Hi, I am using MetaBox Builder only(no Code) and I cannot get any fields columns to show when I configure "Show as an admin column".

I'm using the latest update Meta box 5.3.9 Meta AIO 1.13.8 (with all AIO plugins activated) how do I show/get Admin columns to work?

It only works if everything (column Position) is set to "before - title" any other combination (of before and after with any other field) will not work, also no filter columns etc - Using Astra Pro Theme AND I've disabled all other plugins.

Kindest regards
Jay

It happened to me too, I am using Oxygen Builder 3.9 Alpha 1, a custom field group was created where it was grouped with other subcategories of text area, by ticking the admin column checkboxes the data does show up however it appear as "array"

Hi Wayleong,

The admin columns do not work with the subfields in a group, only work with the top field.
