I'm managed my site through bedrock and use composer to manage plugins. The Meta box AIO and meta box plugins are autoloaded as mu-plugins. It looks like both are installed correctly. However, I keep getting the notification "Meta Box AIO requires Meta Box to work. Please install and activate it." Any thoughts?

Hi Maxim,

Please follow this documentation to know how to install Meta Box and other extensions via Composer https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/composer/.

Let me know if the message still appears.

I resolved. I removed TGMPA from metabox-AIO with this steps:

Remove action add_action( 'tgmpa_register', [$this, 'require_plugins'] );
inside MBAIO\Plugin

with this function
```
function remove_hook_for_anonymous_class(
    $hook_name = '',
    $class_name = '',
    $method_name = '',
    $priority = 10
) {
    global $wp_filter;

    // Take only filters on right hook name and priority
    if ( ! isset( $wp_filter[ $hook_name ][ $priority ] ) ||
         ! is_array( $wp_filter[ $hook_name ][ $priority ] ) ) {
        return false;
    }

    foreach ( (array) $wp_filter[ $hook_name ][ $priority ] as $unique_id => $filter_array ) {
        if ( isset( $filter_array['function'] ) && is_array( $filter_array['function'] ) ) {
            if ( is_object( $filter_array['function'][0] ) &&
                 get_class( $filter_array['function'][0] ) &&
                 get_class( $filter_array['function'][0] ) == $class_name &&
                 $filter_array['function'][1] == $method_name ) {
                if ( is_a( $wp_filter[ $hook_name ], 'WP_Hook' ) ) {
                    unset( $wp_filter[ $hook_name ]->callbacks[ $priority ][ $unique_id ] );
                } else {
                    unset( $wp_filter[ $hook_name ][ $priority ][ $unique_id ] );
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}
```
Then i call remove_hook_for_anonymous_class

in main plugin file:
```
remove_hook_for_anonymous_class( 'tgmpa_register', 'MBAIO\Plugin', 'require_plugins' );
```
