Hi.

Is it possible to show metabox fields for post fields.

I mean post_fields as:

List of post fields you want to show in the frontend, separated by comma. Supported following fields: title, content, excerpt, date, thumbnail.

So can we use these fields in from metabox.

For example i want to use title field that i created as text field with with metabox.

I want to to use content and excerpt fields that i created as WYSIWYG fields with metabox.

So i can arrange and reorder these fields...

Thanks.

Yes, it is, just include it in your shortcode example: [mb_frontend_form id="your_mb_id" post_fields="title, content, excerpt, date, thumbnail."]

You can read more about it here: https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#shortcode-attributes

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply David.

Actually i want to show only metabox id. I want to include title and content fields in metabox fields.

Like this
[mb_frontend_form id=”your_mb_id”]

Title and content fields will be included in metabox..

I want to achive this.

There is tutorial about what i need here > https://docs.metabox.io/save-wysiwyg-content-post-content/

i hope Anh will add title and content wordpress fields to metabox main plugin. This will be better easy and more comofortable.

I hope i could tell

Thanks

Yes, unfortunately, the post title is a bit more of a pain due to where and how the data is saved.

What you could do is write a function in the meantime that mirrors the CF and rewrites the post title with it. You could use the submission hook rwmb_frontend_after_process, so you have the post ID to target the rewrite of the title with as I am not sure the $config submission contains the title.
