Support › MB Elementor Integrator › MB fields missing or misnamed (shows old/changed name) in Elementor Dynamic Tags
BACKGROUND
Meta Box - Elementor Integrator plugin is installed, along with MetaBox core, MB Custom Table, Meta Box Group, Meta Box Include Exclude, and a couple more MB plugins. Site also includes Elementor, Elementor Pro, and Ultimate Addons for Elementor.
Theme is Astra, and Astra Pro plugin is also installed.
I have a long list of MB fields of various types (most are text, textarea, single_image, select, video, or wysiwyg).
All fields are associated with Page pages, and limited to specific pages with the "Meta Box Include Exclude" plugin (targeting pages by Post ID).
All designs are implemented in Elementor Theme Builder, rather than individual pages. In every case, a page is selected in the Theme Builder's Preview Settings that is also covered by the Elementor Display Conditions, and there are no conflicting or overlapping display conditions.
PROBLEMS
In Elementor, opening Dynamic Tags > Meta Box Field does indeed list many fields, but:
name
has been changed, not the id
). However, even after renaming these field names, the original/old field names are still appearing in the Dynamic Tags > Meta Box Field listing.ATTEMPTED
QUESTIONS
At this point, regarding the missing fields problem, I'm especially concerned about Questions 3 & 4. I wonder whether the Meta Box - Elementor Integrator plugin simply isn't seeing all fields correctly because I'm designing in the Theme Builder instead of an individual page.
Hello,
I don't see a limitation to display custom fields in Elementor dynamic tag. Please export your field group to a JSON file and share it here, I will import it to my demo site and check this issue. Also, please share some screenshots of the issue on your end.
Read more in the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#export--import
Is there a way to share JSON and images privately? The client will not appreciate public displays of this sort (yes, we have several clients like that).
I'd be happy, when done, to share conclusions here for anyone that might come to this thread with similar issues.
Hello,
Please share the JSON file and image via this contact form https://metabox.io/contact/
