ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
You can use the filter hook
rwmb_{$field_id}_field_metato set the field value on the editing page or frontend form. Here is an example:Field ID:
user_nameadd_filter( 'rwmb_user_name_field_meta', function( $value, $field, $saved) { $user = wp_get_current_user(); $user_name = $user->display_name; return $user_name; }, 10, 3 );Let me know if it helps.

If the field group (meta box) on the post editing page has been moved between the sidebar and under the main content, the position of the meta box will be saved to the user meta and the field group setting will not work. You can click on the arrow icon to change its position, see this screenshot https://imgur.com/RVsQ05a

Thank you.

ModeratorHello Dassels,
Thanks for your feedback.
I also see the issue on my site and I've escalated this issue to the development team to improve the block editor field for future updates.

ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
It looks like the table wp_mb_relationships was created and deleted, then Meta Box marked it as created by creating the option
mbr_table_createdand set value to 1. Please access the database, table wp_options and delete the optionmbr_table_createdto fix the issue.Let me know how it goes.

ModeratorHello Bertus,
I've replied to your question in the ticket system:
When I edit the Group Test page and select the repeater field, I get 500 error message and here is the debug log
[22-Jan-2026 15:22:17 UTC] Breakdance\AJAX\BreakdanceAjaxHandlerException thrown with message "array_keys() expects parameter 1 to be array, string given" Stacktrace: #17 Breakdance\AJAX\BreakdanceAjaxHandlerException in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/ajax/api.php:118 #16 Breakdance\Lib\Vendor\Whoops\Exception\ErrorException in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/fields/metabox/metabox-image-field.php:94 #15 array_keys in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/fields/metabox/metabox-image-field.php:94 #14 Breakdance\DynamicData\MetaboxImageField:handler in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/breakdance-dynamic-shortcode.php:21 #13 Breakdance\DynamicData\breakdanceShortcodeHandler in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/breakdance-dynamic-shortcode.php:51 #12 Breakdance\DynamicData\breakdanceDoShortcode in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/ajax-get-data.php:100 #11 Breakdance\DynamicData\getData in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/ajax/api.php:116 #10 call_user_func_array in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/ajax/api.php:116 #9 Breakdance\AJAX\{closure} in /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php:341 #8 WP_Hook:apply_filters in /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php:365 #7 WP_Hook:do_action in /wp-includes/plugin.php:522 #6 do_action in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/ajax/ajax_at_any_url.php:28 #5 Breakdance\AJAX\see_if_this_is_an_ajax_at_any_url_request_and_if_so_fire_it in /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/actions_filters/template_include.php:53 #4 Breakdance\ActionsFilters\template_include in /wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php:341 #3 WP_Hook:apply_filters in /wp-includes/plugin.php:205 #2 apply_filters in /wp-includes/template-loader.php:114 #1 require_once in /wp-blog-header.php:19 #0 require in /index.php:17It looks like the issue comes from the Breakdance source code /wp-content/plugins/breakdance/plugin/dynamic-data/fields/metabox/metabox-image-field.php:94
so I suggest you contact Breakdance support and share the error log and ask them how to fix the issue in their plugin.January 26, 2026 at 8:07 PM in reply to: "Metabox Extensions that require update" keeps coming back #49673Peter
ModeratorHello Andreas,
Thanks for reaching out.
Perhaps the MySheetEditor plugin utilizes the Meta Box plugin as a library in its source code. I recommend contacting the MySheetEditor plugin support to get further assistance.

ModeratorHello Jayron,
You can re-order field groups (meta boxes) on the settings page and re-order subfields in a group field when editing a field group as well. Here are screen records

January 24, 2026 at 2:36 PM in reply to: ✅Not sure what I'm running into with MB Groups and some custom fields #49667Peter
ModeratorHello Sean,
I check the code that you created to output field value in the frontend, and there are some basic issues:
1.
$group_id = "gbr_' . $abbr . '_group";wrong single quotes to get the group field ID. It should be
$group_id = "gbr_" . $abbr . "_group";2.
$img_type = $group[ $field_name ] ?? ''; $image_id = $group[ 'single_mon_image' ] ?? 0;you get the group value with this code
$group_value = rwmb_meta( $group_id, [ 'object_type' => '' ] );but get the subfield value from
$groupvariable. It should be$img_type = $group_value[ $field_name ] ?? ''; $image_id = $group_value[ 'single_mon_image' ] ?? 0;I hope that makes sense.

ModeratorHello Sean,
Thanks for reaching out.
I'm checking the issue and I will get back to you as soon as I have more information.

ModeratorHello,
Then I don't have any idea how to trigger an action hook when importing data directly to the database. You can contact TablePlus support and ask them for more information.
Thanks.

ModeratorHello Kyle,
Thanks for reaching out.
I'm not able to reproduce the issue on my demo site. The default value of the
radioandnumberfield displayed correctly when I create a new post. Can you please try again with another site or a clean site and see if it helps?Here is my screen record https://drive.google.com/file/d/13SN2e1-TZvrz95IX_zNvZN8fPuISVs25/view?usp=sharing

ModeratorHello,
Thank you for your feedback.
I can reproduce the issue on my site. The FSE doesn't work when using a Block editor field. I've escalated this issue to the development team to fix it as soon as possible.
January 22, 2026 at 7:55 PM in reply to: Proper way to increase Meta Box Switch size (Admin / Settings Page) #49656Peter
ModeratorHello Jayron,
Please try this custom CSS code to increase the switch field size and let me know if it helps
.rwmb-switch-label { --size: 30px; }Peter
ModeratorHello,
No, it isn't possible. Meta Box will create input fields in the admin area, the user can fill the fields with values and output values in the frontend. We don't support adding field value on the Cart or Checkout page in the frontend.
Thanks.
