Meta Box

Hi Peter,

Thank you for building the test site so many times!

Thanks to your support, I figured out the cause.
When I used AI generation to write a report form with a large number of fields, the readonly syntax was incorrect.

After checking the syntax on your test site and adjusting it, the readonly + hide_from_front fields were successfully saved without being deleted, retaining their stored values.

Thanks and regards,
Yumiko

Hi Peter,

I didn't receive any notification, so I missed the weekend and the validity period expired. A slightly longer validity period would be helpful.

Currently, in another case, the value of the readonly attribute in Metabox is being saved as an empty value during editing.

This is a bug report concerning the post editing screen, and we plan to investigate it immediately. WP5.8 + Metabox is version 5.4.6.

Hi Tran,

I always appreciate your plugins.

I have been asking for this for a while now, but is it difficult to achieve the display of update settings for extended plugins?

The rectangle in the following image shows the function of the area enclosed by the rectangle.
Only Metabox, unlike other plugins, does not follow WordPress core functionality.

If we decide not to support this, we will be forced to stop updating plugins throughout.
There have been a number of collapses of the Metabox functionality, and the prime contractor is working on an emergency response plan.

We are currently looking into measures to minimize the damage to the corporate site as much as possible. We would like to continue to recommend metabox, so please let us know how you plan to handle this issue.

Thanks and regards,
Yumikom

Hi Anh,

I have always been very grateful to Meta Box and your support.

The Meta Box that was giving me errors had automatic updates disabled since last year's update. It is not that old.
We would appreciate it if you could provide a final resolution to the issue regarding automatic updates.

Hi Peter,

I see, I need the Columns plugin, thank you!

Hi Peter,

Thanks again for your support!

Attached is a screen that does not show the columns input field.
builder is 4.9.7

Hi Peter,

Is it possible to solve this problem too?

Only for Metabox related extension plugins, if I set “auto-update enabled”, I can't change the setting in the plugin list.

We think this is clearly a very inconvenient bug and would appreciate it if you could fix it.

I would like to get rid of this problem somehow, as the site breaks down due to auto-update many times.

Thanks again for your cooperation.

Hi,

The defect is not related to the name of the settings ID.
It is the correct setting in my code.

I am specifying Metabox for the Settings page configured in the code below.

define( 'SETTINGS_OPTION_NAME', 'custom-options' );
function com_options_page( $settings_pages ) {
	$settings_pages[] = array(
		'id'          => SETTINGS_OPTION_NAME,
		'option_name' => SETTINGS_OPTION_NAME,
		'menu_title'  => 'サイト設定',
		'icon_url'    => 'dashicons-edit',
		'style'       => 'no-boxes',
		'columns'     => 1,
		'position'    => 2,
	);
	return $settings_pages;
}
add_filter( 'mb_settings_pages', 'com_options_page' );

I make sure that $value_a is always false.
Can you please confirm the behavior of this bug?
