Meta Box

Hi Mauro,

If your fields are just simple fields, you don't need to migrate at all. Meta Box, CMB2 and Alchemy use the same way to store value. So, all you need to do is creating same fields in Meta Box, make sure their IDs match the meta key in CMB2 / Alchemy.

That even works for repeater in CMB2. I haven't tried with all field types of CMB2, but so far it works for me pretty well. So please just try to create same fields in MB first. If something goes wrong, then you should write a small PHP script to:

• Get the old value
• Transform it to Meta Box's format. See here for details: https://docs.metabox.io/database/
• Update the value to the field

That's it.

Hi Iman,

It's a meta box with:

'context' => 'after_title',
'style' => 'seemless',

Please see here for more details about these params:

Hello Mauro,

Did you create the custom table first? This docs demonstrates how to create the table:

https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-custom-table/

It requires some code and you have to put it in your functions.php or the PHP file of your plugin.

Only after creating the custom table, you can save data into it. Please try it and let me know how it goes.

No problem. Let me know if you need anything else 🙂

Hi there,

Thanks for the bug report! I've fixed it in this commit. I'll release new version soon.

Unfortunately, no. It's only available for text field.

Thanks, I'll check that.

I'm afraid no. If you're using text field, you can select values or enter your own value using datalist. See this docs for more info:

https://docs.metabox.io/fields/text/

It's not supported in Fieldset Text, though.
