    Hello,
    I have created a block where I use other custom fields, which get not updated in that block.
    This custom fields gets rendered on the homepage, but not in the editor.

    {% set review_summary = mb.rwmb_meta( 'review_button_text', '', post.ID ) %}
{{ review_button_text }}

    How can I show the variable "review_button_text" also in the editor?

    thanks
    Jochen

    Hi Jochen,

    Please use the helper function mb_get_block_field() to display the field value in the Block editor.

    {% set review_summary = mb.mb_get_block_field( 'review_button_text' ) %}

    Read more on the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-blocks/#render_callback

    My site is crashing, if I use the function mb_get_block_field().
    I am in the field "Render code":
    screen

    mb_get_block_field() was not working.
    But I had to replace post.ID with post_id

    Hi,

    In the Render Code area, you can use the field ID only to display the field value or use the helper function without passing two parameters.

    {% set review_summary = mb.mb_get_block_field( 'review_button_text' ) %}
{{ review_summary }}

    or just {{ review_button_text }}
