    I can't believe Metabox does not have a phone field! Am I missing something?

    Hi Brian,

    The phone field is one of the basic HTML5 input types. Please follow this documentation to know how to create a custom field type tel (phone):

    I am working with Metabox Builder. Why don't you just have a phone field defined there with the others? I can't get it to work there.

    Hi,

    I'm going to create a feature request for the developer team to support the field Phone (tel) for the MB Builder (UI) as an improvement.

    For now, please use the custom field type with some lines of code.
    https://docs.metabox.io/custom-field-type/

    Thanks for your understanding and patience.

    That would be great thanks. Chances are they won't act on that very quickly I assume. It is a great disappointment to pay for addons to avoid writing code and then be asked to write code. 🙁

    Why did you include a link to the contact form?

    If I add code in where the builder has the code for the field set will it get overwritten?
