Meta Box

Hello,

Please install the plugin Meta Box Beaver Themer Integrator with this one https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kvQ9t4LdNPqZjfMOGXmdpskyaTglhZqH/view?usp=share_link

and let me know how it goes.

Hello Jean,

I see on your page, the frontend submission form is included in a popup, it might cause the JS issue. Please add the form to the page directly instead of in a popup and check this issue again. Let me know how it goes.

Hello,

Yes, there is a way. Please enable the collapsible setting of the group field and set the default state Collapsed. Please read more on the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-group/#settings

Hell Tom,

I see the issue. In this case, you will need to use the code to register the relationship and use the query args to exclude the current post from the list of posts.

add_action( 'mb_relationships_init', 'callback_function' );

function callback_function() {
    $post_id = null;
    if ( isset( $_GET['post'] ) ) {
        $post_id = intval( $_GET['post'] );
    } elseif ( isset( $_POST['post_ID'] ) ) {
        $post_id = intval( $_POST['post_ID'] );
    }

    MB_Relationships_API::register( [
        'id'         => 'post-to-post',
        'reciprocal' => true,
        'from'       => [
            'object_type' => 'post',
            'post_type'   => 'post',
            'meta_box'    => [
                'context' => 'normal',
            ],
        ],
        'to'         => [
            'object_type' => 'post',
            'post_type'   => 'post',
            'meta_box'    => [
                'context' => 'normal',
            ],
            'field'       => [
                'query_args' => [
                    'post__not_in' => [ $post_id ], // here
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ] );
}

Hello,

What Meta Box does, in this case, is to support the UI to register the post type with the WordPress function register_post_type() instead of using the code.
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/

If you want to check the issue, you can register some CPTs with the code and with your plugins and with non-plugins activated on a staging site to see how it goes. It's not possible to check a conflict with any plugins on the internet and it is also beyond our scope of support of Meta Box which you can read more here https://support.metabox.io/topic/support-policy/

I hope that makes sense.

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback.

I can see the issue on my demo site and I've escalated this issue to the development team to fix it in the next update.

Hello,

Yes, the idea is to use the JS validation to validate the field without reloading the page. If the page is reloaded, the input value will be lost if it does not pass the backend validation.

Hello,

The setting reciprocal of the relationship helps you to prevent connecting the current post to itself. Please read more on the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-relationships/#relationship-settings
