About This Plugin

Meta Box Builder is an extension for the Meta Box plugin that creates custom meta boxes and custom fields in WordPress by drag and drop. No coding is needed. Drag any of 40+ field types into your own arrangement and customize them.

Set location, priority, context and conditional logic for each meta box and field. Conditional logic, include and exclude, and show and hide options need the matching extensions. Relationships and settings pages need the MB Settings Page extension. You can import and export meta boxes and fields, and every built-in Meta Box field and parameter is supported.

The builder generates PHP code as you work. Export it and paste it into a child theme's functions.php, and the new site needs only the Meta Box plugin, not the builder. It also generates the code to output field values in your themes. With the MB Blocks extension enabled, you can create custom Gutenberg blocks in PHP, with no React or Webpack setup. Pair it with the free Custom Post Type extension to create custom post types and taxonomies.
