Peter
ModeratorHello Jacob,
Thanks for reaching out.
Please update Meta Box plugin to the new version 5.11.1 to fix the issue with Block editor field and the featured image of WordPress.
Peter
ModeratorHello Oskar,
Thanks for reaching out.
There isn't a best way to convert the WYSIWYG field to the Block Editor field. Just like when you use the Classic Editor and switch to the Block (Gutenberg) editor, the content with HTML tags will be converted to a Classic block.
You can continue using the WYSIWYG field or create new content with the Block Editor field.January 30, 2026 at 11:17 PM in reply to: Attach additional $_POST data to image_advanced upload #49703Peter
ModeratorHello Paul,
Thanks for reaching out.
Meta Box is using the Media Library of WordPress to upload images when you use the
image_advancedfield. You can try to use the filter hookplupload_default_paramsto modify the params sent to the upload function.
Please check this filter here https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/6.9/src/wp-includes/media.php#L4438Peter
ModeratorHello Arleen,
Thanks for reaching out.
Meta Box doesn't support a function that calculates the average of the rating field. You can try to create a custom PHP code to calculate it. Maybe related tutorial https://docs.metabox.io/tutorials/add-star-rating-fields/
If you are not familiar with coding, we offer a customization service with an extra fee. Please contact us here for more details https://metabox.io/contact/

ModeratorHello Jacob,
Thanks for reaching out.
Yes, that is the custom code. There isn't an option to remove the field value if it is hidden. You can use the JS code to set the empty value for the field.

ModeratorHello,
I don't see that issue on my demo site when using the Classic Editor, as in your screenshot. Please check this https://imgur.com/a/rNdSx42
Also, if you use the Classic Editor, you can easily drag and drop meta boxes to change the position instead of using the arrow icon.

ModeratorHello,
> I have the setting correct in custom fields, but it is not working.
Can you please create a new field group and see where it displays on the editing page?
> the fields are constantly moving in my admin (up and down to different sections)
Please share some screenshots or a screen record of the issue.
Thank you.

ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
You can use the filter hook
rwmb_{$field_id}_field_metato set the field value on the editing page or frontend form. Here is an example:Field ID:
user_nameadd_filter( 'rwmb_user_name_field_meta', function( $value, $field, $saved) { $user = wp_get_current_user(); $user_name = $user->display_name; return $user_name; }, 10, 3 );Let me know if it helps.

ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
If the field group (meta box) on the post editing page has been moved between the sidebar and under the main content, the position of the meta box will be saved to the user meta and the field group setting will not work. You can click on the arrow icon to change its position, see this screenshot https://imgur.com/RVsQ05a

ModeratorHello Dassels,
Thanks for your feedback.
I also see the issue on my site and I've escalated this issue to the development team to improve the block editor field for future updates.
Peter
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
It looks like the table wp_mb_relationships was created and deleted, then Meta Box marked it as created by creating the option
mbr_table_createdand set value to 1. Please access the database, table wp_options and delete the optionmbr_table_createdto fix the issue.Let me know how it goes.

I've replied to your question in the ticket system:
When I edit the Group Test page and select the repeater field, I get 500 error message and here is the debug log

so I suggest you contact Breakdance support and share the error log and ask them how to fix the issue in their plugin.January 26, 2026 at 8:07 PM in reply to: "Metabox Extensions that require update" keeps coming back #49673Peter
ModeratorHello Andreas,
Thanks for reaching out.
Perhaps the MySheetEditor plugin utilizes the Meta Box plugin as a library in its source code. I recommend contacting the MySheetEditor plugin support to get further assistance.

ModeratorHello Jayron,
You can re-order field groups (meta boxes) on the settings page and re-order subfields in a group field when editing a field group as well. Here are screen records
