    Hi Meta Box team,

    I’ve activated MB AIO, Meta Box Views, Meta Box Frontend Submission, and MB Custom Post Type. I’ve created a View using Twig to render a frontend submission form connected to my custom post type (lodging) and field group (lodging-listing-fields).

    Here's the code inside my View template:

    twig
    Copy
    Edit
    {{ mb.frontend_form( 'lodging-listing-fields', {
    post_type: 'lodging',
    label_submit: 'Add Lodging Listing',
    post_status: 'publish'
    } ) }}
    The View is saved, published, and working fine in the admin — but on the frontend, the form never appears. Instead, when I embed it via shortcode like this:

    [mbv name="admin-lodging-form"]

    …it just displays the raw shortcode as plain text, not the form.

    ✅ All related plugins are active
    ✅ “Show in REST API” is enabled for the CPT
    ✅ The View is set to “Shortcode” and saved
    ✅ I’ve tried clearing caches (WP Rocket), switching page templates, creating new test pages, and even using incognito — no change.

    Here is the test page showing the issue (currently public):
    👉 https://peacheyreport.com/admin-test-lodging-form/

    Is there anything I might have missed? Or is it possible something in the MB Views rendering engine didn’t initialize properly?

    Thanks so much — I appreciate any insight you can offer!
