I have a Cloneable Group (sortable), and it contains a Group (non cloneable), and that contains a Taxonomy (Select Advanced, non Multiple) field.

I am able to properly select the taxonomy and save the post, and the correct value shows up on the front end.

However, if I go to the backend and edit that post, the previously selected taxonomy value does not show up in the taxonomy select field, and rather the select field is blank.

Is this a known bug?

Thanks!

Hi,

As I said on this topic https://support.metabox.io/topic/how-to-set-taxonomy-terms-from-multiple-taxonomy-fields/#post-38573
the field taxonomy does not work when it is a subfield in a group. You have to register it as a top field. Or use the field taxonomy_advanced in a group to save the post meta.

Thanks! I was using the Taxonomy field with Select Advanced instead of Taxonomy Advanced 😉
