Support › Meta Box Builder › Uncaught Error: [tippy]: `position` is not a valid option
Hi,
When editing a custom post type which has custom fields created with Metabox, I'm getting an error in the web inspector.
It seems it conflicts with the Permalink Manager Pro plugin. I contacted their support team and find out that Metabox is using an older version of the Tippy library and is blocking the permalink manager plugin to load the most recent version.
If I disable metabox custom field, the post load without error.
Here is the error:
Uncaught Error: [tippy]: position
is not a valid option

Can you look into the issue?
Thank you
Hi,
Thanks for your feedback.
Fixing compatibility with another plugin is beyond our scope of support. But I will inform the development team to update the Tippy library to the latest version.
Hi Long,
Thank you for requesting to update the Tippy library to the latest version. Hopefully, that will fix the conflict.
That's said, if it doesn't, as stated in the post, from what I understand, Metabox is blocking the other plugin from loading the right library afterwards, so it seems to me that metabox is the issue and therefore should be updated to make sure it doesn't block other plugins to do there job. Isn't this part of your scope of support?
Thank you for your time.
