ModeratorHello,
Thanks for reaching out.
The field type
select_advancedwill automatically load more posts when you scroll down to the bottom. It doesn't work like theselectfield. So, if you open theselect_advancedfield, scroll down the list of posts, it will load more posts with the number ofposts_per_pagesetting.I hope that makes sense.

ModeratorHello Lukas,
Thanks for your feedback.
Yes, there isn't an option to set a field in a settings page to translate or not. You can go to WPML > String translation to delete the registered string that you don't want to translate.

ModeratorHello,
To query posts by a field value saved in a custom table, you need to use PHP code and SQL query. It isn't possible to use MB Views to do so. Please follow the documentation to read more about the PHP code
https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-custom-table/#query-posts-with-wp_queryThank you.

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.

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.
