Meta Box

please reply, if you need more info please let me know.

In addition to this, if i delete the Cloned Empty Start group and press save, it is saving but the updated data is missing one group, so it is removing actual data though it is empty.

Hello Peter,

Thank you for the info.

To test this, I have installed a new WordPress installation with Local. The most recent WordPress version, PHP 8.1.23, and MySQL 8.0.16 were used.

Now, as per the custom table and model documentation, I have added the same example but modified little bit for my requirement. Added cloneable group of fields. The code which is added in functions.php is as below:

add_action( 'init', 'twentytwentyfour_pattern_categories' );

$model_name = 'metabox_pro'; // Example dynamic model name
$table_name = 'metaboxes_pro'; // Example dynamic table name
add_action( 'init', function() use ($model_name, $table_name) {
    mb_register_model( $model_name, [
        'table'  => $table_name,
        'labels' => [
            'name'          => 'Metaboxes Pro',
            'singular_name' => 'Metabox Pro',
        ],
        'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-money-alt',
    ] );
} );

add_action( 'init', function() use ($table_name) {
    MetaBox\CustomTable\API::create(
        $table_name,// Dynamic Table name.
        [
            'question' => 'TEXT',
            'answer_1' => 'TEXT',
            'answer_2' => 'TEXT',
            'answer_3' => 'TEXT',
            'answer_4' => 'TEXT',
            'answer_explanation' => 'TEXT',
            // Add more fields as needed.
        ],
        [],// List of index keys.
        true // Must be true for models.
    );
} );

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function ( $meta_boxes ) use ($model_name, $table_name) {
    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title'        => 'Transaction Details',
        'models'       => [$model_name],
        'storage_type' => 'custom_table',  // Must be 'custom_table'
        'table'        => $table_name,
        'fields' => [
            [
                'id'         => 'standard',
                'type'       => 'group',  
                'clone'      => true,     
                'sort_clone' => true,
                //list of sub-fields
                'fields' => [
                    [
                        'id' => 'question',
                        'name' => 'Question',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'answer_1',
                        'name' => 'Answer 1',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'answer_2',
                        'name' => 'Answer 2',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'answer_3',
                        'name' => 'Answer 3',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'answer_4',
                        'name' => 'Answer 4',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'answer_explanation',
                        'name' => 'Answer Explanation',
                        'type' => 'wysiwyg',
                    ],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ];

    return $meta_boxes;
} );

But when I tried to add a new record in the backend, I got multiple console errors. Please see the attached screenshot here: https://pasteboard.co/wQFadTar6koY.jpg

Please suggest if I missed anything in the code while creating custom model and custom table

Hello,

Can you please explain why using custom models over custom tables is suggested?

I want to read this shortcode from a custom field like input/textbox and output that on the front end with a repeater of that custom posts (entering in the content is not required). Should be read from a custom field and work on a repeater in the front end. is it possible?

sorry in the last code the if part was given wrong
I was trying like follows:

<?php $images = rwmb_meta( 'home_page_top_ad', ['size' => 'thumbnail'] ); ?>
if (is_array($images) || is_object($images)) {
    foreach ( $images as $image ) {
        echo '<img src="', $image['url'], '">';
    }
}

How can I get the image URL from the settings gape field group?
