Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Meta Field Block - Display Custom Fields for ACF, Meta Box and More

This plugin is created for developers, but end users can also use it.
No, It does not. It only displays meta fields as blocks.
Only simple types such as string, integer, or number can be used directly. Other complex types such as object, array need to be converted to HTML markup strings.
It supports all basic field types that return strings or cast to strings. Some complex field types like image, link, page_link, post_object, relationship, taxonomy, and user are also supported in a basic format. To display complex ACF field types such as Group, Repeater, Flexible Content, Gallery, File, etc., you will need to either purchase MFB PRO or write your own custom code using the hook API.
It supports all basic field types and some complex field types such as Image, Video, Choice fields, Taxonomy, User, Post, in basic format. For other complex field types, you can use the built-in hook to display your fields with custom markup. MFB PRO allows you displaying the Group field as a container block, Cloneable Group field as a repeater block with group, row, stack, grid, or carousel layout, Post field as a Query Loop, Image list fields as a gallery with grid or masonry layouts, or as a carousel of images.
The value for those settings should be plain text or some allowed HTML elements. Their values will be formatted with wp_kses( $prefix, wp_kses_allowed_html( "post" ) ). They're helpful for some use cases like displaying the name of the meta field or a value with a prefix or suffix, e.g. $100, 100px, etc.
The block does not provide any CSS style for the meta field value. But it does provide a basic display inline style from the settings.
Yes, it does, as long as those meta fields can be accessed via the get_post_meta, or get_term_meta, or get_user_meta function and the return value is a string or can be cast to a string. To display the value in the block editor, the meta field has to be accessed via the REST API.
There is a chance that your meta value contains some HTML tags or HTML attributes that are not allowed to be displayed. To fix this, you should use the hook apply_filters( 'meta_field_block_kses_allowed_html', $allowed_html_tags ) to add your tags and attributes to the array of allowed tags. By default, the block allows all tags from the $allowedposttags value and basic attributes for iframe and SVG elements. If you don't want to sanitize the content at all, use this hook apply_filters( 'meta_field_block_kses_content', false, $attributes, $block, $post_id, $object_type, $content ). However, we don't recommend doing it unless you have a good reason.
