According to the description in the form actions https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/ I need to use the metabox name to verify the 'config['id']'.
In my case, I have many metabox IDs coupled in a frontend form. In this scenario, how can I verify and process the form actions to send an email after submission?

Please help me to use the code.
Below are the details of the content.

page id: 7896
form shortcode:

[mb_frontend_form id="job-post-title,taxonomies-1-job,job-details,job-meta-university-address" post_type="job" post_status="pending" submit_button="Submit" edit="true" ajax="true" confirmation="You have successfully submitted your job. Visit the dashboard to edit it if you wish. We will contact you soon." redirect="https://nviewscareer.com/account/jobs-submitted-dashboard/"]

ref.
```
add_action( 'rwmb_frontend_after_process', function( $config, $post_id ) {
    if ( 'my-meta-box' === $config['id'] ) {
        wp_mail( '[email protected]', 'New submission', 'A new post has been just submitted.' );

    wp_safe_redirect( 'thank-you' );
    die;
}

}, 10, 2 );
```
what to use for 'my-meta-box' in my case?

Sorry for these silly questions...

Hi,

You can explode the variable $config['id'] to an array and check if a meta box id is available in this array. For example:
```
    $meta_box_id = 'job-post-title';
    $config_ids = explode( ',', $config['id'] );
    if( in_array( $meta_box_id, $config_ids ) ) {
        wp_mail( '[email protected]', 'New submission', 'A new post has been just submitted.' );
    } else {
        echo "Do something if false";
    }
```
