    I am using Elementor to develop a site and I would like to accomplish the following:

    1. Add a customs field to post categories, to assign a color and an image
    2. Access the fields for image and color in single post Elementor template
    3. Access the fields for image and color in a post listing Elementor template

    I am able to create the fields easily enough, but am having trouble getting them to work with Elementor dynamic tags. I can see and select the field names but the colors don’t change and the image does not display.

    I would also be open to approach tis a different way. Anyone have any ideas?

    Ian

    Hi Ian,

    The Elementor Pro plugin has been changed the source code of dynamic tags. We will try to create an update for the extension MB Elementor Integrator as soon as possible. For now, please try to get the term meta by coding and follow this documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/mb-term-meta/.

    Ok, the reason I bought MetaBox was to use it with Elementor. And I also supposedly won a free license that I’ve never received. Can you please address these concerns?

    Hi Ian,

    Sorry for the late reply.

    I’ve checked this case one more time and see that it cannot explore this function with Elementor to get the term meta on the single post. I also add a feature request to the to-do list of the development team to check the compatibility of Elementor’s future updates.
