I have a page with custom fields but they are not saving to the custom database. If I turn off the custom table they save correctly to the wp_postmeta table.

Here is the PHP.( I am using the Meta Box UI for everything)


<?php
add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'your_prefix_function_name' );

function your_prefix_function_name( $meta_boxes ) {
    $prefix = 'tuition_';

    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title'        => __( 'Tuition & Fees', 'your-text-domain' ),
        'id'           => 'tuition-fees',
        'post_types'   => ['page'],
        'include'      => [
            'relation' => 'OR',
            'ID'       => [725],
        ],
        'storage_type' => 'custom_table',
        'table'        => 'wp_tuition_fees',
        'tabs'         => [
            'tuition_payment_due_dates_tab'    => [
                'label' => 'Due Dates',
                'icon'  => '',
            ],
            'tuition_community_member_tab'     => [
                'label' => 'Community Member',
                'icon'  => '',
            ],
            'tuition_non_community_member_tab' => [

Hi Dan,

Please export the field group to a JSON file and share it here. I will import it to my demo site and recheck this issue. Refer to this documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#export--import

You can also try to create another field group with a new custom table to see if it works.

Hi Dan,

I do not see any issue when saving field value to the custom table, here is the screen record on my demos site https://monosnap.com/file/IiJjTxbIqV78hQmGmC5vbYp2pO0RNG

Can you please create a new field group with a new custom table and recheck this issue?

Did you look to see if it actually stored it in the database? I can reproduce the exactly thing in mine but when I go to the database the values are not there and after a day or so all my fields are empty again. So I guess they are getting cached somewhere.

Here is my video.

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your additional info.

I've escalated this issue to the development team to investigate the issue and get back to you later.
