multiple instances of tinymce with wp_editor with custom post_type – cant save

wow, cant believe i missed it. here is a sample code to allow multiple visual editors (wp_editor or wysiwyg) using tinymce within a metabox.
this will add the metabox to post’s

<?php
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'mpc_add_description_meta_box' );
// Add the products Meta Box
function mpc_add_description_meta_box() {
    add_meta_box('mpc_add_description_meta_box', 'Product Description (Language 2)', 'mpc_add_description_meta_box_callback', 'post', 'normal', 'high');
}

// the description output
function mpc_add_description_meta_box_callback() {
    global $post;
    // Noncename needed to verify where the data originated
    echo '<input type="hidden" name="mpc_products_description_noncename" id="mpc_products_description_noncename" value="'.wp_create_nonce(plugin_basename(__FILE__)).'" />';
    // Get the location data if its already been entered
    $input = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'mpc_products_description', true);
   // echo '<input type="text" name="mpc_products_description" value="' . $input  . '" "  />';
	wp_editor($input, 'mpc_products_description', array('textarea_name' => 'mpc_products_description', 'editor_css' => '<style>#wp-mpc_products_description-editor-container{background-color:white;style="width:100%;}</style>'));

	echo '<table id="post-status-info" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td id="wp-word-count">Word count: <span class="word-count_2">';
	$words = strip_tags($input);
	$count = str_word_count($words, 0);
	echo $count;
	echo '</span></td>
	<td class="autosave-info">
	<span class="autosave-message">&nbsp;</span>
	</td>
	</tr></tbody></table>';
}

//save the data
add_action('save_post', 'mpc_save_description_meta', 1, 2); // save the custom fields
function mpc_save_description_meta($post_id, $post) {
    // verify this came from the our screen and with proper authorization,
    // because save_post can be triggered at other times
    if ( !wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['mpc_products_description_noncename'], plugin_basename(__FILE__) )) {
    return $post->ID;
    }
    // Is the user allowed to edit the post or page?
    if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_post', $post->ID ))
        return $post->ID;
    // OK, we're authenticated: we need to find and save the data
    // We'll put it into an array to make it easier to loop though.
    $mpc_description_meta['mpc_products_description'] = $_POST['mpc_products_description'];
    // Add values of $mpc_description_meta as custom fields
    foreach ($mpc_description_meta as $key => $value) { // Cycle through the $mpc_description_meta array!
        if( $post->post_type == 'revision' ) return; // Don't store custom data twice
        $value = implode(',', (array)$value); // If $value is an array, make it a CSV (unlikely)
        if(get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, FALSE)) { // If the custom field already has a value
            update_post_meta($post->ID, $key, $value);
        } else { // If the custom field doesn't have a value
            add_post_meta($post->ID, $key, $value);
        }
        if(!$value) delete_post_meta($post->ID, $key); // Delete if blank
    }
}
?>

please note that this thread is marked as resolved!

thanks anyways 🙂

s3w47m88,
This thread was created 5 months ago and I don’t remember what I did. Do you really need to know the difference between the two? I shared the second one because that was the working solution. I always attempt to help others by showing the code that I used to get things working. In addition, I added lots of comments which should explain things! Let me know if you need to know the difference between the working one and the non working one and it i have time ill go through It and see if I can find something. A
