    After the latest update (5.10.12) my site gives a critical WordPress error, I reverted to the previous version (5.10.11) and now it works again. Disabled auto update for now. In my error logs I came across these mentions:

    PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function MBTM\\get_current_screen() in /home/admin/domains/vakantieparkennederlandzoeken.nl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-aio/vendor/meta-box/mb-term-meta/src/MetaBox.php:74\nStack trace:\n#0 /home/admin/domains/vakantieparkennederlandzoeken.nl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/meta-box-aio/vendor/meta-box/mb-term-meta/src/MetaBox.php(48): MBTM\\MetaBox->is_edit_screen()\n#1 /home/admin/domains/vakantieparkennederlandzoeken.nl/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(324): MBTM\\MetaBox->enqueue()\n#2 /home/admin/domains/vakantieparkennederlandzoeken.nl/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(348): WP_Hook->apply_filters()\n#3 /home/admin/domains/vakantieparkennederlandzoeken.nl/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php(517): WP_Hook->do_action()\n#4

    Any idea what is oing wrong?

    Yes, same here with V5.10.12. 

    Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function MBTM\get_current_screen() in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs
...
 {main} thrown in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/customer/wp-content/plugins/customer-core/includes/metabox/mb-term-meta/src/MetaBox.php on line 74

    It's coming from Term meta extension.

    Looking for a fix asap.

    Thanks!

    Hello Rik,

    Thanks for your feedback.

    I'm not able to reproduce the issue on my site with Meta Box 5.10.12 and Meta Box AIO 2.3.1. You can try to deactivate Meta Box single plugin and use only Meta Box AIO to fix the issue.

    Hi Peter,

    thanks for the reply, I just deactivated the Meta Box plugin and only use the AIO plugin now. Everything seems to keep working. I never knew these two could be used separately. I allways thought AIO was an addon to the original plugin. Am I correct I don't need the standalone Meta Box plugin anyway when using Mea Box AIO?

    Kind regards,

    Rik

    Additional error output:

    Site works when only using Meta Box AIO as suggested by Peter. You can use wp-cli to disable the Meta Box plugin if needed:

    wp plugin deactivate meta-box

    Does it mean that with AIO installed, we don't need Metabox plugin anymore ?

    Hi Peter,

    When deactivating Meta Box (not AIO, it's still activated) some meta values aren't displayed on the frontend anymore, others are.

    i.e. $value= rwmb_meta( 'example' );

    When I use print_r($value) it's empty, when I activate the plugin again (previous version) it shows the content.

    Will run through this tomorrow to see if I can fix it, just wanted to let you know.

    Kind regards!

    Hi,

    I'm getting same error. The free version on WordPress.org is installed, and you also have the MB Term Meta extension. That's why it gives this error.

    Does it mean that with AIO installed, we don't need Metabox plugin anymore ?

    Yes. See Meta Box AIO Now Includes Meta Box - One Plugin, Full Power!.

    This link recommends uninstalling the original Meta Box plugin if you use Meta Box AIO, but it is not a requirement and there was supposed to be no conflict if both are enabled. However, as we see with this issue, and another I have previously encountered, there have been a few unexpected bugs.

    I had same issue.
    A get_current_screen() call is being performed inside the custom namespace MBTM. This it should not do.

    I resolved it temporarily by editing the /wp-content/plugins/mb-term-meta/src/MetaBox.php file and adding a php include for the screen.php file. Not necessarily an ideal fix but works til MetaBox fixes the issue and updates.

    so @ line 73 in /wp-content/plugins/mb-term-meta/src/MetaBox.php

    public function is_edit_screen( $screen = null ) {
    require_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/screen.php' ); //<-add this
    $screen = get_current_screen();
