Meta Box

Hi Przemek,

That's a rare case. I didn't think about using a same callback function for different blocks.

Anyway, new version has just been pushed and you can access to the block name via $attributes['name'].

Hi Brian,

Please try this code:

add_shortcode( 'display_cars', function( $atts ) {
    $atts = wp_parse_args( $atts, [
        'post_id' => get_the_ID(),
    ] );

    $cars = rwmb_meta( 'car', '', $atts['post_id'] );
    if ( empty( $cars ) ) {
        return '';
    }
    $output = '';
    foreach ( $cars as $car ) {
        $output .= '<h4>', 'Car Details', '</h4>';
        $output .= '<p>', 'Brand:', ' ', $car['brand'], '</p>';
        $output .= '<p>', 'Date Release:', ' ', $car['date'], '</p>';
        foreach ( $car['color'] as $color ) {
            $output .= '<p>', 'Color:', ' <span style="color:', $color, ';"><strong>Color</strong></span></p>';
        }
    }
} );

Usage:

[display_cars] // for the current post
[display_cars id="123"]

@Dorian: your point on serialized data is great. That might be the root cause of the problem.

If you have to fix the serialized data after migration, you can try WP CLI with the command search-replace (see this docs) or this script. Both can replace the data without breaking the serialization. There are also some plugins on wordpress.org that can do the same job.

Hi Saradhi,

I'm very sorry for the delay. Let me try to help you now.

I see in the screenshot that the filters are displayed correctly for the posts (honda, subaru, etc.). Did you mean the price didn't show in the filter list? I see you have min/max for price, so that's fine. Please let me know more details on the problem.

Thanks

Hi Aishwarya,

Yes, that's done. Please update to version 1.3.5. The new settings is class for the settings page.

FYI: Meta Box 5.2.0 also adds class settings for custom CSS class. So you have more room to customize now.

Hi Brian,

Are you using the latest version of Meta Box? Can you try clearing browser cache? I've just tested with similar code and couldn't replicate the problem.

Yes, I'm finalizing some issues and will release new version for AIO in a few days.

Hi Jon,

Since version 5.1, we add sanitization for all inputs. For textarea field, we use the wp_kses_post for sanitization and it sanitizes the HTML comments as you see.

If you want to keep that, you probably need to bypass the sanitization by setting 'sanitize_callback' => 'none' for the field. Or write your custom sanitize callback. Please see the documentation for details.
