    Hi,

    Planning to buy the new extension of metabox blocks. But I have not used it so not sure what I can do with this and what not ? Can it be used to create multiple fields in group like we do in a metabox. To create a group of fields and can those be cloned or not ?

    How to show posts list of pages or any custom post type, where are available options and things like that ? Can we show taxonomies as well to chose from and stuff we usually do with meta boxes is all available or is there any thing missing ?

    Kindly, let me know so I can move accordingly.

    Thank You

    Hi Akram,

    Thanks for your questions. Please see the answers below:

    Can it be used to create multiple fields in group like we do in a metabox.

    Yes, you can absolutely do that. All groups created with Meta Box Group work!

    To create a group of fields and can those be cloned or not ?

    Yes, cloning fields is supported.

    How to show posts list of pages or any custom post type, where are available options and things like that ?

    This is just a normal WP_Query, and I don't think it has relation with blocks.

    If you're referring to something like search and filtering, you might want to use FacetWP plugin, which we have an integration for.

    Can we show taxonomies as well to chose from and stuff we usually do with meta boxes is all available or is there any thing missing ?

    Yes, you can show and choose anything within a block, just like normal meta boxes.

    Hi,

    Thank you very much for the response. Yes I knew the WP_Query ... but my question is how can I show a select box drop down in the Gutenberg blog in which posts or custom post type is listed so user can select any of post type and its ID can be saved in the back end.

    Actually the scenario is I have a gallery post type, so want to give users to select their desired gallery inside post. SO, which gallery they chose will be shown in the post etc ... some thing like that. I hope you got me if still not let me know ?

    Thank You
