ModeratorHello,
I've received a report from a user which is similar to this issue. It happens when you set the conditional logic which is not available in the current field group. Can you please remove the conditional logic and recheck this?
ModeratorHello,
This issue has been fixed recently. You won't see the error when clicking on the Anchor setting on the editing page. However, WordPress itself doesn't support this setting for a custom block. Please read more in the WordPress documentation https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/reference-guides/block-api/block-supports/
Anchors let you link directly to a specific block on a page. This property adds a field to define an id for the block and a button to copy the direct link. Important: It doesn’t work with dynamic blocks yet.ModeratorHello,
It depends on how many custom fields or other input variables are on the editing page when you save the post. If you have a few fields, it is ok to work with a value of 1000. Otherwise, some custom fields won't save the value to the database. You can read more about this PHP setting in the article
https://metabox.io/wordpress-custom-fields-not-saving-increase-max-input-vars/ModeratorHello Nick,
Thanks for reaching out.
There is a setting
autosavefor the field group to autosave field value along with the post but it doesn't work properly now. I've escalated the issue to the development team to fix it in future updates of Meta Box plugin.Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/creating-fields-with-code/
ModeratorHello Michael,
Thanks for reaching out.
The field shouldn't be available in the Rest response when you enable the option "Hide from REST API". I've rechecked this feature and it works well on my local site.
You can visit the Rest URL like https://site.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/post-id
and see if the field is available there.If this option doesn't work, please export the field group to a JSON file and share it with me. I will help you investigate the issue. Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#export--import
ModeratorHello,
There is no distinct performance because all of settings and fields are created and displayed in the admin area using UI or PHP code.
ModeratorHello Filippo,
Thanks for reaching out.
Can you please share some screenshots or a screen record of "cpt disappearing issues"? The setting PHP max_input_vars is mostly related to the field value not being saved to the database. I've not experienced this setting with a post of CPT.
ModeratorHello Jun,
Thanks for reaching out.
Can you please export the field group to a JSON file and share it here? And share some screenshots of the enabled extensions on the page Meta Box > Extensions.

It is normal behavior if you create some user meta fields and they are displayed in all user role profile pages. If you want to show the fields for a specific role, you can use the extension MB Include Exclude. In the builder, it is the option Advanced Rules, screenshot https://imgur.com/jpfQUIQ
Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-include-exclude/
And refer to this topic https://support.metabox.io/topic/conditionals-for-user-fields-not-working-as-expcted/
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
Both ways: using the UI or PHP code are safe and secure on a WordPress site. In both ways, you still need to install and activate Meta Box AIO (or other single plugins) on your site to use the features.
If you want to deeply customize the field and field group, you can use the PHP code. Otherwise, the UI supports most of the features that Meta Box plugins have.Regarding the translation, you can use a translation plugin like WPML or Polylang to translate custom fields on your site.

Thanks for reaching out.
You are correct, those sections are added to the user profile page by the extension MB User Profile. They shouldn't be displayed there. I'm going to escalate the issue to the development team to fix the issue in future updates.
October 13, 2025 at 9:20 PM in reply to: Hiding/removing the single post page of certain post types #49139ModeratorHello Ash,
WordPress itself doesn't support a setting to remove the single post page but keep the archive page in the frontend. You can try to redirect the single post page to the archive page or another page, for example:
add_action( 'template_redirect', function() { if ( is_singular( 'your_post_type' ) ) { wp_redirect( get_post_type_archive_link( 'your_post_type' ), 301 ); exit; } } );ModeratorI can see the issue with the URL field and conditional logic. I'm going to escalate this to the development team to check and fix the issue.
Thanks.
ModeratorHello,
I don't see the issue with "translate" setting on my site, please check this screen record https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gKr9ZbJAi2LWQ8J56Qe5Xv19Sef6NHfM/view?usp=sharing
Let me know if you have any questions when using Polylang with Meta Box.

Thanks for reaching out.
I'm not able to reproduce the issue on my site. Can you please export the field group to a JSON file and share it with me? Following this documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#export--import
