Hello there!

I have added some fields in attachment post type. I can see them in "Edit more details" option in the "Attachment Details". Still, I want to put those fields in "Attachment Details" pop up in order to be easier for the user to edit them and being autosaved that have to take one more step to do that. Is this possible via your plugin?

Thank you and congrats for the nice plugin 🙂

I'm afraid not. The "Attactment Details" popup is created and triggered by JavaScript, while most of our work is PHP.

Too sad.

Well, I believe that it should be much more easier for the user to fulfill the metas through the pop up window and not through the page of the attachment (one step more). Does any other of your plugins do that or maybe you could somehow guide me and achieve this?

Thank you anyway 🙂

I've seen Jetpack plugin do that. Not sure if there's any solution in general for that.

I found this article https://code.tutsplus.com/articles/how-to-add-custom-fields-to-attachments--wp-31100

describing what we are talking about. Take a look at show_in_modal parameter. It is exactly what I want. Maybe you could integrate that into your plugin.

Cheers.

Hi again,

I was able to do this! You need to download the development version on Github to have this feature: https://github.com/rilwis/meta-box

To enable a meta box for media modal, you need to set:
```
'post_types' => 'attachment',
'media_modal' => true,
```
to the meta box parameters.

Take a look at the demo here: https://github.com/rilwis/meta-box/blob/master/demo/media-modal.php

Hello,

Thank you. I installed the development version and I got some errors such as

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_source_lang_code() on null in /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-master/inc/wpml.php:97 Stack trace: #0 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(298): RWMB_WPML->modify_field(Array) #1 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-includes/plugin.php(203): WP_Hook->apply_filters(Array, Array) #2 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-master/inc/meta-box.php(320): apply_filters('rwmb_normalize_...', Array) #3 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-master/inc/meta-box.php(46): RW_Meta_Box::normalize_fields(Array) #4 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-master/inc/core.php(62): RW_Meta_Box->__construct(Array) #5 /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(298): RWMB_Core->register_meta_boxes('') #6 /home/so in /home/socia979/public_html/coloursofajourney.eu/cOlJ/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-master/inc/wpml.php on line 97

Are you sure I can use this version for a production environment?

Sorry, I missed a check for WPML which causes the Fatal error. Please try again.
