When register this relationship shouldn't setting 'post_type' => 'product' in the 'to' make it so that meta box only appear for the product cpt?

For some reason the 'Saves' meta box also appears on the normal post edit screen as well.

MB_Relationships_API::register([
    'id' => 'users_to_products',
    'from' => [
        'object_type' => 'user',
        'meta_box' => [
            'title' => 'Saves',
            'field_title' => 'Select Products',
        ],
    ],
    'to' => [
        'object_type' => 'post',
        'post_type' => 'product',
        'meta_box' => [
            'title' => 'Saved By',
            'context' => 'side',
            'empty_message' => 'No users',
        ],
    ],
]);

Hi guys,

I guess this problem occur because the MB User Meta plugin is not active. It's required to make relationship from "user". Can you please check that?

Hi,

I'm not using the user relations at all.

I'm just having relations between post custom terms and custom post types. Which I assume is the reason for the behavior.

So I have custom taxonomy which I added to "Posts". Since I need the same taxonomy all over different Custom Post Types, I made a relation between them. Example:
```
MB_Relationships_API::register( array(
            'id'   => 'events_to_units',
            'from' => array(
                'object_type' => 'term',
                'taxonomy'    => 'units'
            ),
            'to'   => array(
                'post_type' => 'events',
                'meta_box' => array(
                    'title' => 'Add Unit'
                )
            ),
        ) );
```
Now there is a select "Event" Relation Meta box below each post. But I never added a relation between post and CPT.

Hope that helps to understand my issue.

Hi Matthias,

Did you activate the MB Term Meta extension? It's required to set relationships with terms.
