Meta Box

Hi Toomas,

I'm afraid I haven't seen any site or plugin doing this. The only way I can think of is using a custom code. But I don't have any sample at the moment.

Hi Brian,

1. Was that correct to do?

Yes! Sorry, my mistake. I missed the "s".

1. How do you use Meta Box shortcodes to output group fields?

The shortcode only outputs list of data of sub-fields in a group. I'd not recommend using it for groups. Instead, write your own shortcode, like what you did with group_monthly_calendar shortcode.

1. Yes it was in the field. But now since I changed it to be in a group I don’t know what the ID would be to test again.

As you need to get the PDF file URL, try modifying your shortcode to this:

add_shortcode( 'group_monthly_calendar_pdf_url', function( $atts ) {
    $output = '';
    $group = rwmb_meta( 'group_cal_pdf' );
    $file_ids = isset( $group['cal_pdf'] ) ? $group['cal_pdf'] : null;
    $file_id = empty( $file_ids ) ? null : reset( $file_ids );
    $file = RWMB_File_Field::file_info( $file_id );
    if ( is_array( $file ) ) {
        return $file['url'];
    }
    return '';
} );

1. Are you having issues saving settings in the Group Field in MB Builder?

I see. Thanks a lot for your video. I'll check and fix it.

1. File Advanced showing “max number of files” even though I did not select the “show status” check box.

Thanks. Let me check and fix it.

1. If you remove the “Label” for the Group field – but then you add a “Group title text” it seems like that should then show up where the normal “Label” field showed. Currently all my “group” fields are blank. See the above video link.

I see. Thanks a lot for your video. I'll check and fix it.

Hi Toomas,

Unfortunately, it's not possible with the plugin.

Please try this:

jQuery(document).ready(function( $ ){
  $('.count input').attr('readonly', true);
  $('.radio').change(function () {
    // Counting.
    var count=0;
    $('.radio input:checked').each(function(){
      if ($(this).val().replace(/V_/g,'')=="Specialiteit") {
        count += 1;
      }
    });
    $('.count input').val(count);

    var $submitButton = $( '.rwmb-form-submit' ).children( 'button' );
    if ( count > 3 ) {
      $submitButton.prop( 'disabled', true );
    } else {
      $submitButton.prop( 'disabled', false );
    }
  });
});

Hi, I've just checked and can't replicate the bug:

Can you try with no plugins activated and with normal post?

Hi Sergio,

Did you try:

add_action( 'rwmb_field_A_after_save_field', function ( $null, $field, $new, $old, $object_id ) {
    $storage = $field['storage'];
    $storage->update( $object_id, 'field_B', 'new value' );
}, 10, 5 );

This code works only when the field A is put after field B in the meta box, which means field B is already saved.

If field A is before field B, then after we run this code, field B still use value from the submission. In this case, please try this code:

add_action( 'rwmb_field_A_after_save_field', function ( $null, $field, $new, $old, $object_id ) {
    $_POST['field_B'] = 'new value'; // Modify directly submitted value from $_POST.
}, 10, 5 );

Hi Sergio,

I guess you're using another plugin that also enqueues Google Maps. The URL above is different from what Meta Box outputs. If that's correct, it's easy to explain 2 errors in the console: the API key is not provided and the limit exceeds.
