Meta Box

Hi @long

I've just applied this update and the field set stopped showing up in the index list.

However I imported the .json backup and I can now see the defined fields and edit them, and the changes appear to work.

Many thanks for getting this fixed.

Actually, it's worse than that, the updates I installed today totally broke field handling on the affected content types, so none of the fields showed up when trying to edit, and rwmb_meta started returning a different set of values.

Is there any regression testing done before you issue releases?

Is there ANY chance of an update on this?

I could have migrated the entire site to a different CMS in the time this bug has existed.

Hi,

Do you have any update on progress with this? The problem is meaning our custom validators are being bypassed so my client can't insert video embeds into posts at the moment, which is a bit annoying. A swift fix would be much appreciated.

I updated to the latest avaialble metabox plugins today (MB Custom Post Types & Custom Taxonomies Version 2.1.0) and it did not resolve the issue.

Many thanks

Dorian

This upgrades means I can see the '+ Add Fields' button on the Field Group, and potentially add buttons, but the data stored in my database is not loaded or displayed and I am unable to re-import the historical settings from the saved json file.

Looks like you have fixed a symptom, but not the problem.

Please advise on the next course of action. Trying to re-create the field group from the JSON file by hand in the hope that it doesn't mess with 90% of the clients content on this website is not an idea which fills me with joy given how flakey this software seems.

Hi,

I've just installed the latest metabox plugin and this has not resolve the issue. Can you please let me know how I can fix this ASAP? What you have told me so far has broken my clients site, and has lost the configuration details.

I've had no follow up on my direct contact with you on two occasions now

I need to know how to get the configuration back into MetaBox from the data stored in the underlying MySQL database.

Thanks,

Dorian

P.S, I've done as @Long asked but not heard anything further... any updates there?

Hi @Long,

I've emailed you again via the contact form (about 30 seconds ago)

email should be from d*****@theusefularts.org if you need to search for it

Thanks,

Dorian

Thanks for getting back to me.

I've just tried the ?mbb_version=3.3 trick - it doesn't give me any feedback that the upgrade has been run, is it quiet?

I then when to edit the Custom Field and it wasnt showing fields, so re-saved the post as suggested and all the residual configuration I could see via wp-admin (The post types the Custom Field was associated with) appears to have gone.

When I query MySQL directly I can still see JSON in the post_content and post_excerpt fields (the JSON is different in each field)

Any further hints?
