    Just a quick one, how do I create a field that displays other fields in it.

    And will this populate live or only once it’s been saved.

    It’d be for first field is telephone country code then second is the rest of the number.

    I’d like this to be available on the back end to preview see the merged field.

    Hello Simon,

    Thanks for your feedback. Currently, Meta Box doesn't support an option or a field to display a field in another field. You can try to create a custom field type with some custom JS code to do that. Please follow the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/creating-new-field-types/

    Thank you, what I’m trying to achieve is create a field for a telephone number then another field using that data that begins with tel: so I can use that for the link.

    With other url meta fields in elementor I can prepend the url field using the; before, after, fallback box.

    However with MetaBox urls you don’t get that option. Can that be looked into then it’d allow one field to be adjusted to be used as a tel: or mailto: link.
