ModeratorHello Nick,
This issue has been fixed in the new version Meta Box AIO 3.0.1. Can you please recheck this on your site?
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
The frontend form is used to create/edit the post in the frontend. It doesn't support editing the settings page like that.
If you want to edit only one post, you can add the attributeobject_idto the shortcode. For example:[mb_frontend_form id="xyz" post_fields="false" ajax="true" redirect="" object_id="123"]where 123 is the post ID or custom model ID.
What is object_type = post/model (cannot find a description)?You can find the description in the documentation
https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/#adding-the-submission-form
https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-custom-table/#custom-modelsThat means you can submit a custom model stored in a custom table from frontend, like a post.
ModeratorHello Chip,
Thanks for your feedback.
Meta Box plugin uses the jQuery validation https://jqueryvalidation.org/email-method/
to validate the email. And I see that the email without an extension is accepted
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/input.html#valid-e-mail-addressYou can use the basic validation: custom attribute
patternof the field with a custom pattern to validate the email input. For example: https://imgur.com/tjW9xKIand following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/validation/#basic-validation

Thanks for reaching out.
I tested to create a new field group with some simple fields like text, number ... and see the custom table is automatically created as well.
Can you please export your field group to a JSON file and share it here? I will help you investigate the issue.In the meantime, you can use the PHP code to create a custom table https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-custom-table/#using-custom-tables-with-code
and remove the code after the table is created.ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
I'm afraid that it isn't possible. The tab must be added as a top field, it doesn't work if you add it as a subfield inside a
groupfield.ModeratorHello,
Twig template engine doesn't support the
switchstatement as PHP. You can use theif elsecode as you do in your code. Refer to Twig documentation https://twig.symfony.com/doc/3.x/tags/index.htmlAnd please note: we don't support the customization code for your specific needs. Please read more about our support policy here https://support.metabox.io/topic/support-policy/
Thank you.
September 1, 2025 at 10:46 AM in reply to: BUG REPORT: Metabox AIO update causes "Draft" labels to vanish for all posts #48875ModeratorHello,
Thank you for your feedback.
This code causes the issue with the Draft status label for other post types
add_filter( 'display_post_states', [ $this, 'remove_draft_state_label' ], 10, 2 );You can temporarily remove it to fix the issue. I'm going to escalate this issue to the development team to fix it in the next update of Meta Box plugins and support a filter hook so you can add other post types to the list of
$post_typesand show the toggle draft columns for those post types.August 29, 2025 at 10:13 PM in reply to: Table not being created, post edits not writing new data to table #48865ModeratorHello Michael,
Thanks for reaching out.
I test to import the field group to my demo site and see the same issue, the custom table is not created automatically. If I create a new field group with a new custom table, it works properly.
I'm going to escalate this issue to the development team and I will get back to you when I have more information.
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
Can you please let me know if the field value in the template code is output correctly? Supporting the customization code is beyond our scope of support. We will focus on the issue related to Meta Box only.
ModeratorHello,
Please copy your site to a staging site and share your staging site credentials (wp-admin and FTP) by submitting this contact form https://metabox.io/contact/
I will take a look.Thank you.
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
The tab field must be added first or moved to the top of a field group. Then you can add other custom fields below a tab to show them in that tab on the editing post page.

ModeratorSorry, but is there any chance you read my reply above? Please try to deactivate all plugins except Meta Box plugins, switch to a WordPress theme (like 2025) and recheck this issue.
Thanks.
ModeratorHello,
MB Views works like a template engine, you should use a function that returns a value to output the value in the template.
Refer to the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-views/#running-php-functionsIf you are not familiar with this, you can add the
<br>or<p>tag to the textarea field to show the linebreaks or paragraph in the frontend as I mentioned above. -
