Meta Box

Hi Florian,

I've just updated both MB Frontend Submission (version 1.1.1) and Meta Box (on Github) to make the post thumbnail deletable. Can you please try them?

The old technique is removing files via ajax, which is not doable in the frontend. The new version of file field uses simple hidden input field to store value, and makes it deleteable. It also allows us to clone file field if needed.

Please just try and let me know the result.

Thanks,
Anh

Hi Saqib,

Does it not work with a simple WordPress installation? Have you checked the meta box is hidden in the "Screen" options tab (on the top right)?

Hi again,

I've just checked the code and looks like the problem comes from the field ID. For cloning fields, we add suffix "_1", "_2" to the ID of new clones. In this situation, your fields have exactly the same pattern ("inhalt_1") and that breaks the naming of new clones. Please just change the field ID to something else, without the suffix "_x" and it will work.

PS: I understand that might be something unusual, but we have to have a way to make ID unique.

Glad that 1 problem is resolved. I tested on your website yesterday and didn't see the bug of admin-ajax. Looks like I didn't clone enough. Will try more.

By the way, is there any security rule applied on your website?

I've just fixed issue of not clearing image_advanced value when cloning a group. Can you please try it on your site to see if it works? I'll release new version when we confirm that.

I've received it. Will check it soon.

Hi Jackky,

Thanks for your suggestion. But that doesn't really reduces the number of requests. Do you mean *only* query when typing in the select_advanced? What about clicking on the field as select a post?

Hi,

The option post_type accepts array of post types. So you can get all the post types via get_post_types() function and pass them to post_type.
