Meta Box custom fields not showing with new AIO plugin
In the last few weeks Meta Box updated their AIO plugin so it no longer requires the free Meta Box plugin. However, when the free Meta Box plugin is not activated, the custom fields are not available when customizing a CPT view.
Thank you for your feedback! I checked the AIO plugin without the core/free plugin installed and was able to reproduce the issue.
The reason no fields are loaded is that our integration relies on checking for a specific class that only exists in the core plugin’s code. My initial thought is to also check for the AIO plugin to ensure the MetaBox integration loads correctly. However, we need to verify that this change won’t introduce any unintended side effects.
Would you be able to test this on your end by modifying the following file in our plugin?
File:
admin-columns-pro/addons/metabox/classes/Metabox.php#23
Updated code:
if ( ! class_exists('RWMB_Loader', false) && ! class_exists('MBAIO\Loader', false)) {
return;
}It would be great if you could apply this change and confirm whether the MetaBox integration works as expected. We are also testing this internally, and in my initial test, the fields loaded correctly, and everything seemed to work as expected.
Looking forward to your findings!
I tested it and it does work!
Thanks
