Meta Box

Hi Sadiq,

Please try to follow these steps:

1. Create a new custom post type for teams, you can use MB Custom Post Type to do this.
2. Create a meta box like this:

add_filter( 'rwmb_meta_boxes', function( $meta_boxes ) {
    $meta_boxes[] = [
        'title' => 'Matches',
        'fields' => [
            [
                'id' => 'matches',
                'type' => 'group',
                'clone' => true,
                'collapsible' => true,
                'fields' => [
                    [
                        'id' => 'league',
                        'name' => 'League',
                        'type' => 'text',
                    ],
                    [
                        'id' => 'team1',
                        'name' => 'Team 1',
                        'type' => 'post',
                        'post_type' => 'team',
                    ],
                    [

                        'id' => 'team2',
                        'name' => 'Team 2',
                        'type' => 'post',
                        'post_type' => 'team',
                    ],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ];
} );

PS: Please take the code as a starter point and try to follow the docs for Meta Box and MB Group. As you're the one who knows what you want exactly, you should do the code. I can just only help, but can't do that for you.

Hi Ryan, I think the validate method works only once, e.g. if you implement a validation on the form, then Meta Box's validation won't work.

A simple workaround is copying the code from validate.js to your file.

Probably I'll make this feature in the next version. Letting you or other developers doing this seems a little bit confusing.

Can you please try this fix and let me know if it works? I'll release new version when it's confirmed.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. Let me check the issue.

You mean including custom fields in the response of WP_Query?

If so, then it's not supported. That might lead to a query performance. I think it's better to do something like this:

$query = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();
    $field_value1 = rwmb_meta( 'field_id1' );
    $field_value2 = rwmb_meta( 'field_id2' );
    // Do what you want.
endwhile;

Calling helper function or get_post_meta function inside a loop is a better way, since WP_Query already cache all post meta and they don't create any extra query to the database.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for your feedback. It's a good addition to the plugin. I'll do that in the next version.

Hi Sean,

You don't need to create nonces. They're already handled by the plugins.

Security is an important thing that we care about!

Hi Brian, can you send me a temporary admin account to check that? Maybe the problem is somewhere else.
