I see its been 3 months. Hopefully this is still of help to you or others?
// don’t forget to add the suffix class “multiedit_” which is automatically appended to all of your multiedit fields.
//you can find the full name, by viewing your post , going to the custom-fields section and clicking “show/hide multiedit fields”
In your case you should see “multiedit_region”
// if you are checking multiple fields in unique spots on your template, be sure to give each a unique variable name.
//this could be done easier with a function where you pass the key name but for simplicity this works
// define the key you want to find
$key4 = 'multiedit_region';
// use this WP built in function to grab the meta key
$themeta4 = get_post_meta($post->ID, $key4, TRUE);
// now lets see if anything was returned in that meta key value
if($themeta4 != '') {
// if found , display the multiedit field and its surrounding html code
<div class="region">
<h2>heading</h2>
<?php multieditDisplay('region'); ?>
</div>
}
The project I needed this solution for is long finished and I forget how I went about handling it. But your answer is sufficient to resolve my topic. I hope this is a help to others searching for a way to do the same thing I was.
Thank you, @acts7.
