Group items not showing up

I am dealing with some legacy code from 2015. to start off I updated all of the meta box plugins, after the update the group items are not showing up. Below is a sample of the code, I took some of the unnecessary code out of the array and tried to focus on the problem area. I can post the full code if needed.

$box_list = array(
  'list_item_group' => array(
      'name' => __( 'List Item group', 'meta-box' ),
      'id'   => "item_group",
      'type' => 'group',
      'clone' => true,
      'sort_clone' => true,
      'columns'=>12,
      'class'=>'',
      'fields' => array(
          array(
              'name' => __( 'Item Image Upload/Select', 'meta-box' ),
              'id'   => 'img',
              'desc' => __('img', 'meta-box'),
              'class'=>'',
              'columns'=>12,
              'type' => 'file_input',
              'placeholder' => __('Item image', 'meta-box'),
          ),
          array(
              'name' => __('This item\'s title text(no HTML needed).', 'meta-box'),
              'id' => 'title',
              'desc' => __('title', 'meta-box'),
              'class'=>'',
              'columns'=>12,
              'type' => 'text',
              'placeholder' => __('Title', 'meta-box'),
          ),
          array(
              'name' => __('This item\'s paragraph text.(no HTML needed)', 'meta-box'),
              'id' => 'text',
              'desc' =>'text',
              'class'=>'',
              'columns'=>12,
              'type' => 'textarea',
              'cols' => 20,
              'rows' => 4,
              'placeholder' => __('Paragraph text', 'meta-box'),
      ),
  ),
),
);
