    Hello,

    I created a group field with two sub-fields (rec_url & where_to_buy). These do not show up within the Custom Field/Meta Options within Oxygen Builder (see here).

    How can I insert these sub-fields? I do not know PHP, so I will likely need more detailed instructions if adding PHP will be necessary.

    Thank you!

    Hi,

    Please follow the documentation to know how to get the subfield's value https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-group/#getting-sub-field-values.

    and refer to your topic to run the PHP function with Oxygen https://support.metabox.io/topic/output-shortcode-from-a-custom-field/.

    You should have the basic knowledge of coding about PHP, HTML, CSS to do some advanced cases.

    Thank you for the links.

    I feel competent with html and css - not at all with php. Will php be necessary to be able to use the full functionality of Meta Box even when/if Meta Box integrates with Oxygen?

    Can you tell please me where I would input the following (snippet code or code block)?
    (It's a cloneable group)

    $group_value = rwmb_meta( 'group_id' );

    array(
    'sub_field_1_key' => 'sub_field_1_value',
    'sub_field_2_key' => 'sub_field_2_value',
    'sub_field_3_key' => 'sub_field_3_value',
    //...
)

    $value = isset( $group_value[$sub_field_key] ) ? $group_value[$sub_field_key] : '';
echo $value; // Display sub-field value

    array(
    array(
        'sub_field_1_key' => 'sub_field_1_value',
        'sub_field_2_key' => 'sub_field_2_value',
        'sub_field_3_key' => 'sub_field_3_value',
        //...
    ),
    array(
        'sub_field_1_key' => 'sub_field_1_value',
        'sub_field_2_key' => 'sub_field_2_value',
        'sub_field_3_key' => 'sub_field_3_value',
        //...
    ),
    //...
)

    $group_values = rwmb_meta( 'group_id' );
if ( ! empty( $group_values ) ) {
    foreach ( $group_values as $group_value ) {
        $value = isset( $group_value[$sub_field_key] ) ? $group_value[$sub_field_key] : '';
        echo $value; // Display sub-field value
    }
}

    Hi Amanda,

    Sorry for the late reply.

    You can use the PHP code anytime even the integration released. It can help you to do some advanced cases when the integration won't cover.

    I recommend using the Code Snippets to run the custom function.

    function my_custom_function() {
    $contacts = rwmb_meta( 'contacts' );
    if ( ! empty( $contacts ) ) {
        foreach ( $contacts as $contact ) {
            echo '<div class="contact">';
            echo '<h4>', 'Contact info', '</h4>';
            echo '<p><label>', 'Name:', '<label> ', $contact['name'], '</p>';
            echo '<p><label>', 'Email:', '<label> ', $contact['email'], '</p>';
            echo '<p><label>', 'Phone number:', '<label> ', $contact['phone'], '</p>';
            echo '</div>';
        }
    }
}

    See the example for the cloneable group https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-group/#examples

    Hi Peter,

    The Oxygen team has created the integration with Meta Box and MB extensions. Please contact Oxygen support to get more details.

    Thanks.
