Meta Box

I had another customer who had (maybe) similar problem: he registered a lot of meta boxes and fields and couldn't save them. The problem was: PHP limits the number of POST fields, usually 1000, and also POST size. This makes you not save all fields when you build your meta boxes with the Builder.

Here are some links for reference about this:

http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/community-support/prestashop-15/increase-the-maxinputvars-in-phpini

The fix for that is editing the .htaccess (or php.ini) like this:

php_value max_input_vars 3000
php_value suhosin.get.max_vars 3000
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 3000
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 3000

Please try and let us know if this fixes.

Hi, I've just sent you the invoice via email.

I will add invoice download link to user profile later.

Have fun.

It does have clear floats, of course. But the thing is the plugin needs correct number of columns to output correct opening and closing divs. You can see it in the console like this:

Here is an example to illustrate what I meant in previous reply: assuming we have 2 rows, 1st row has 2 fields (each field has 1/4 width), 2nd row has 4 fields (each field has 1/4 width):

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function ()
{
	return [
		[
			'title'  => 'Demo columns',
			'fields' => [
				[
					'id'      => 'text1',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text1',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
				[
					'id'      => 'text2',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text2',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
				[
					'type'    => 'custom_html',
					'std' => '',
					'columns' => 6,
				],
				[
					'id'      => 'text5',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text5',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
				[
					'id'      => 'text6',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text6',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
				[
					'id'      => 'text7',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text7',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
				[
					'id'      => 'text8',
					'type'    => 'text',
					'name'    => 'Text8',
					'columns' => 3,
				],
			],
		]
	];
} );

An easy way to do that is keep adding 4 fields for columns, but you can use a special field like custom_html with zero content. That forces the plugin to output empty divs in the column which helps to maintain the layout.

Hi catarinacarraro,

I've just tested with your code and I see the std value works, the radio with value "Em" is checked by default:

Hi, in order to convert data from 1 format to another format, you need to understand how data is saved in the database. Here is the documentation for this. For group, data is saved as an array, each element of which is the value of sub-fields.

In this case, if you are using simple text field, your data is just multi rows in the database, so getting values will not be a big problem. But I'm not clear how you want to put them in a group? Will the text field is a sub-field of the new group? If so, you can use the following code:

<?php
$text_id = 'TEXT_FIELD_ID';
$group_id = 'GROUP_FIELD_ID';

$posts = get_posts( array(
	'posts_per_page' => -1,
) );
foreach ( $posts as $post )
{
	$text = rwmb_meta( $text_id, 'type=text', $post->ID );

	$meta_key = "{$group_id}[{$text_id}]";
	update_post_meta( $post->ID, $meta_key, $text );

	// delete_post_meta( $post->ID, $text_id ); // Remove old data, use with care
}

Hi, you can use post field with 'post_type' => 'page'.
