ModeratorHello Rachel,
Thanks for reaching out.
Please update MB Builder to new version 5.2.2, which is compatible with WordPress 6.9.4. If you experience any issues when using MB Builder and the latest WordPress version, please let me know.
Peter
ModeratorHello,
Thanks for the details. I understand the case. However, it isn't possible to extract the content from the shortcode for the RankMath plugin to read it. It can work with literal words only.

ModeratorThanks for your feedback.
I will forward this topic to the development team to consider adding a notice message when the user uses those field IDs.
Let us know if you have any questions.

ModeratorHello Sridhar,
It doesn't work because of the field ID
post_author. In WordPress,post_authoris not a normal custom field. It is a core column in thewp_poststable and doesn't work when you enable "Author" feature for the CPT.If you want to use the custom field and save the value to the database, table wp_postmeta, there are 2 ways:
1. Use a different field ID, like
post_meta_author
2. Go to Meta Box > Post types > Edit CPT > Supports tab > Disable option "Author".A similar issue will happen if you use the following field IDs:
post_author post_title post_status post_name post_dateMarch 16, 2026 at 9:06 PM in reply to: Feature Request: API Token Field Type (No WP Core Hash) #49802Peter
ModeratorHello Jayron,
Thanks for reaching out.
We have documentation about creating custom field types https://docs.metabox.io/creating-new-field-types/
you can follow it to create your own field type.
Here is a reference https://github.com/badabingbreda/field-text-multimaskPeter
ModeratorHello Murray,
Thanks for reaching out.
When creating the custom field, you can add the custom setting
rank_math_analysisto the field settings. So RankMath can read the values from service_text and location_text as content. Screenshot https://imgur.com/TDGb8C9Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-rank-math/

If you deactivate the plugin Meta Box AIO, are posts displayed properly on the listing page?

ModeratorHello Phil,
Thanks for your feedback.
The toolbar now displays above each block, not as the top toolbar. I will inform the development team to consider supporting this feature in future updates.

ModeratorHello Helms,
Thanks for reaching out.
Can you please share the exported field group JSON file and PHP code that you use to output the field value? I will help you check the issue.
Following the documentation to export the field group https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-builder/#export--importPeter
ModeratorHello David,
Thanks for reaching out.
This feature has been escalated to the development team and we will work on it to release an update in the future.
Let me know if you have any questions.

ModeratorHello Filippo,
Thanks for reaching out.
After typing the keyword into the search box, you can press Enter to go to the search results page and view more related topics. It works well for me, please check this screenshot https://ibb.co/HLLrCNhF

ModeratorHello Lucian,
Thanks for reaching out.
The tool helps you change the field key (meta key) of posts, terms, and users in the database, table wp_postmeta, wp_termmeta, wp_usermeta. It doesn't change the field ID in the field group where you setup the field.
This tool will change the meta key of all custom fields in the post, term and user meta tables.I hope that makes sense.

ModeratorHello Kyle,
Thanks for your feedback.
I can reproduce the issue and replacing the double quotes with single quotes will fix it. I'm going to escalate the issue to the development team to include a fix for this in future updates.
