Meta Box

Hi Thomas,

That's the intended purpose. The color picker should act like a popup and should not change the height of the outer element (tab panel in this case). Because that might make the layout "dance" when we toggle the picker. And that's a bad experience if we're in a group.

Hi Dan,

All the settings for admin columns are listed in the docs. And in the Builder, you can set the params using dot notation.

For example:

• If you just want to show the field in the admin column, set a custom attribute admin_columns to true.
• If you want to show the field before name column (like I did in the previous comment), set a custom attribute admin_columns to before name.
• If you want to show the field before name column and has a custom title "Featured Image", then use the dot notation to set a custom attribute admin_columns.position' to 'before name', and another custom attributeadmin_columns.title' to "Featured Image".

Hi,

Can you check if you register meta boxes under any condition such as is_admin() or inside a hook? It's required to put the code that register meta boxes (add_filter('rwmb_meta_boxes', ...)) not inside any condition.

The rwmb_get_registry returns a registry, e.g. a storage, of all registered meta box objects. You can use that registry to get all meta boxes via get( 'all' ) method.

The statement:

$meta_boxes = rwmb_get_registry( 'meta_box' )->get( 'all' );

actually means:

$meta_box_registry = rwmb_get_registry( 'meta_box' );
$meta_boxes = $meta_box_registry->get( 'all );

To get meta values for a specific page ID, please use the 3rd parameter in the helper functions:

$value = rwmb_meta( 'field_id', '', $page_id );

For more info, please read the docs.

Hi Thomas,

I'm checking and fixing it. Sorry for not letting you know.

PS: Version 1.1.0 has fixed this. Please update.

I got it. So your main purpose is not writing different IDs for groups.

While this is not recommended, but I think it still works with the current version of Groups. I mean you can set the same ID for sub-fields in different groups. And then you can access to them using the same keys. It should work in most cases. Please just test it.

Hi,

Yes, you can extend the meta box objects. Please use this snippet to get all meta box instances:

$meta_boxes = rwmb_get_registry( 'meta_box' )->get( 'all' );
foreach ( $meta_boxes as $meta_box ) {
    // Do whatever you want
}

Then you can filter, add/remove more settings to meta boxes. The meta box registry contains all references to real meta box objects. So be careful. Because what you change will affect the whole code.

PS: Using the filter rwmb_meta_boxes just gives you a copy of array of meta box settings, not real meta box objects.

Hi,

The plugin's shortcode doesn't support all wp_login_form() parameters at the moment. I'll update to support them.

I got it. You still can save image in the database by encoding it. Use a tool like this, or base64_encode function to convert the image file into a text string. Then you can save it. However, you need to handle outputting the image by decoding it, because the value stored is the encoded data, not the real image.
