    Hi,

    It looks like that naming a field ID "post_title" is not anymore working as it should.

    Basically I used to change the field ID to "post_title" when I wanted to use that field as the tile of the post, but lately this doesn't work anymore.

    It happens the the field is is not seen as the post tile so I need to type the post title twice, in the title itself and in the field, that is now visible as a custom field. Before it wasn't visibile as it was acting as the post title.

    Sorry if it is a little bit confusing, bit I didn't know how to better explain.

    Metabox 5.8.2
    Metabox AIO 1.23.1
    Wordpress 6.3.2 (Same issue with WordPress 6.4.1)
    Bricks Builder 1.9.2

    Many thanks,
    Filippo

    Hello,

    In the admin area, if you use the custom field with the ID post_title, it wont' display when editing the post because the default title field of WordPress is the same.
    You can use that field ID in the frontend submission form. Please follow the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#field-order
