Meta Box

Oh I see. Glad that you figured it out 🙂

Hi Ahmed,

We have tested your code and it works. Please see this screenshot:

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for a nice question. Yes, it's doable. In the code from the tutorial, notice this part:

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_edit_meta_boxes', 20 );

The last number is the priority of the code to add fields to a meta box. The plugin which has lower number will run first. So, if you have 6 plugins, just set different numbers for them in a order you want, like this:

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_edit_meta_boxes_1', 20 );
add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_edit_meta_boxes_2', 30 );
add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', 'prefix_edit_meta_boxes_3', 40 );

Hi Thomas,

Glad that you have resolved this problem. If you don't mind, please share your solution (or link to the tutorial) here so others can refer if they have a similar problem.

Thanks,

Hi,

Regarding the 1st question: I think adding restriction to the form is ok, we can do that. However, even if the form is restricted, you still need to prevent non-wanted users to access that page? What do you think about this?

Regarding the 2nd problem: all post data is processed via wp_update_post and wp_insert_post. We don't run any sanitize feature for that. However, you can use these filters to perform an extra check.

This is an interesting question and I'd love to hear your feedback.

Thanks,
Anh

Hi, which field are you referring to? Have you tried dot notation?

Hi, user role is actually not supported in Conditional Logic yet. Because the user role is always fixed and can't be changed while editing, using it for conditional logic seems not convenient. Instead of Conditional Logic, you can use the MB Include Exclude extension which supports well for the user role.

Hello David, at the moment, the MB Custom Table still relies on the custom post types to store the post data such as post title and post content. It supports only saving custom fields in the custom tables.

We're working on an enhancement that brings more power to this extension, which allows you to store any content separately from the wp_posts table. That will include both the custom fields and post fields. But it's not ready yet and you need to wait.

Best regards,
Anh
