Peter
ModeratorHello,
Based on your screenshot, it is the DATE field, not the TIME field. Regarding the timestamp setting in a group field, it is expected behavior and noted in the documentation

ModeratorHello Simon,
Thanks for reaching out.
The
timefield doesn't support the timestamp setting; only thedatetimefield supports it. If you create the field group with code, please remove that setting and recheck the issue. Following the documentation
https://docs.metabox.io/fields/time/Peter
ModeratorHello,
Yes, it is possible. If you can pass the order ID to the attribute
object_idof the frontend form shortcode, you can edit the custom field of the order in the frontend on any page. Here is an example:[mb_frontend_form id='order-custom-fields' post_type="shop_order" object_id="1234"]Please read more about attributes in the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/

ModeratorHello,
Thank you for your feedback. I can reproduce the issue with re-order posts and Redis Object Cache (free) activated. I'm going to forward this issue to the development team to fix it so this feature can work with object cache.

ModeratorHello,
If you upload the PDF file, it isn't an image, so it doesn't have a thumbnail image. Only the default icon from WordPress displays after uploading the PDF file
wp-includes/images/media/document.svgMeta Box uses the WordPress function
wp_get_attachment_image()to display the thumbnail image for the uploaded file'icon' => wp_get_attachment_image( $file, [ 48, 64 ], true ),Please follow WordPress documentation https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_get_attachment_image/

ModeratorHello,
The issue might come from the callback function or template of the custom block. The code will run a loop, and somehow it becomes an infinite loop causing an out-of-memory issue.

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.
Peter
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.
