Meta Box

Hello,

I understand the issue. It is related to this topic https://support.metabox.io/topic/dynamically-populate-the-options-of-a-select-custom-field-base-on-global-cf/

you need to use the WordPress function get_option() to get the settings page value (like the theme option) when creating the custom field. At this point, the helper function rwmb_meta() doesn't work.

Here is an example

function test_function() {
    $options = get_option( 'custom-options' );
    $value_a = $options['test_a'];

    $optionsA = array(
        '1' => 'Apple',
        '2' => 'Orange'
    );

    $optionsB = array(
        '3' => 'Cat',
        '4' => 'Dog'
    );

    return $value_a ? $optionsA : $optionsB;
}

If you use the builder, you will need to re-update the field group to update the choice for the field test_b.

Hello,

Please ensure the option name is added to the helper function, and the separator should be underscore instead of dash. For example custom_options

$value_a = rwmb_meta( 'test_A', array( 'object_type' => 'setting' ), 'custom_options' );

Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-settings-page/#using-code

After you save the field test_a value, the $optionsA will be returned.

Hello Nick,

I create a custom field type following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/creating-new-field-types/

and I can use the jQuery validation, frontend filter validation properly. Here is the example code:

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function ( $meta_boxes ) {
    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title'      => 'Profile',
        'id'         => 'post-profile',
        'post_types' => 'post',
        'fields'     => [
            [
                'name' => 'Hotline',
                'id'   => 'hotline',
                'type' => 'phone',
                
            ],
        ],
        'validation' => [
            'rules'  => [
                'hotline' => [
                    'required'  => true,
                    'minlength' => 7,
                ],
                // Rules for other fields
            ],
            'messages' => [
                'hotline' => [
                    'required'  => 'hotline is required',
                    'minlength' => 'hotline must be at least 7 characters',
                ],
                // Error messages for other fields
            ],
        ],
    ];

    return $meta_boxes;
} );

add_filter( 'rwmb_frontend_validate', function( $validate, $config ) {
    // Check if users have selected files for an image upload field.
    if ( empty( $_POST['hotline'] ) ) {
        $validate = 'Please add a phone number';
    }
    return $validate;
}, 10, 2 );

Hello metafan,

I'm sorry about this experience but it isn't solved. I will let you know when this event is added back to the MB Blocks plugin.

Hello,

You can go to the My Account page, login to your account and download the Meta Box extension plugins to install it on your site manually. Please check this screenshot https://imgur.com/0M047T7

Hello,

If you use the MB frontend shortcodes to show the form and dashboard in the frontend without using Bricks, do they work on your site? Please follow the documentation
https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-frontend-submission/
I think the issue arises from the Bricks element itself, not from Meta Box.

Hello Neha,

Do you try to switch the theme to a WordPress theme also? If you still cannot edit a field group, please share your site admin account by submitting this contact form https://metabox.io/contact/
I will take a look.
