    Hi,

    On radio fields, setting the attribute "readonly" to true has no effect. Options can still be selected and saved. Is this a known issue? Thanks!

    array(
            'name'    => 'Test',
            'id'      => 'test',
            'type'    => 'radio',
                        'readonly' => true,
                        'options' => array(
                 '1' => '1',
                '2' => '2',
                ),
        ),

    Hi,

    The attribute readonly does not work with the field radio. You can set the default value and disable the radio field.

              [
            'name'     => __( 'Radio', 'your-text-domain' ),
            'id'       => $prefix . 'radio',
            'type'     => 'radio',
            'options'  => [
              'a' => __( 'A', 'your-text-domain' ),
              'b' => __( 'B', 'your-text-domain' ),
              'c' => __( 'C', 'your-text-domain' ),
            ],
            'std'      => 'b',
            'disabled' => true,
          ],

    Thanks for confirming!

    "Disabled" won't work for this case - we're deprecating an existing field. We want to prevent users from changing them, but still display the existing value if already set.

    I'll find a workaround. Thanks!

    Hi,

    You can try to get the current field value and assign it to the std setting if the value is already set. Refer to this tutorial https://docs.metabox.io/save-wysiwyg-content-post-content/
