The new year is coming very soon and we wish you health, success and fun! 2015 is a successful year for Meta Box when it reached 100.000 active installs (counted by WordPress.org), excluding users who are using Meta Box as a included module in themes.
We also released 10 extensions this year, including very popular extensions such as Meta Box Group or Meta Box Conditional Logic. Next year, we hope to release more than 10 extensions which cover many areas of usage for you.
The latest month of 2015 is the month of free extensions of Meta Box when they're all updated to new API.
For months, I received a lot of requests asking whether Meta Box is possible to create theme options page or settings page for plugins. People asked this because they love the simplicity of the plugin and the beauty of the syntax (FYI the idea of using array syntax is inspired by Options Framework plugin). If they can integrate Meta Box into WordPress themes for adding custom data for posts, then why can't they do the same for theme options?
The latest version 4.7 of Meta Box has been just released today with a new improvement which allow users to add custom attributes for inputs like text, URL, email fields. This feature is very helpful if developers want to add something like data-* attribute for their custom JS code.
