I don’t need them to be searchable at all as they are only to override global options and to setup the posts layout. In case of many thousands of posts, all these meta fields will generate significant amount of wp_postmeta records. I don’t think it’s good for performace and efficiency points of view. This is the reason I’m prone to store these post options serialized. - This reply was modified 9 years, 7 months ago by [Alex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyjam/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[CMB2] Save group fields data separately and repeatable groups styling questions](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/save-group-fields-data-separately-and-repeatable-groups-styling-questions/) * Thread Starter [Alex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyjam/) * (@flyjam) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/save-group-fields-data-separately-and-repeatable-groups-styling-questions/#post-8158467) * Yup, I’m going to this and learn more about cmb2, for now just need a easy-go solution.

That’s one I needed. Thank you! * And as far as I know only way for now to change Repeatable Groups Layout – only with css which is a limit over design or with custom fields (like address field in examples).

My questions are more specific to the group fields. Can’t find answers for #1 * For #2: I thought I could use groups for just visually sorting the fields, but if I can’t choose how to save data (separetely or serialized), this is probably not suitable. * As per my question #3: I found that group rendered by `render_group_row` function in CMB.php. Unfortunetly I can’t find any filter I can use to change the group’s output. With `render_row_cb` as far as I see I can’t control it. * Only the way – a custom field. Yes, I used this solution to combine some fields. But I thought there might be more easy way to choose and control group field, that would speed things up out of the box. Some ideas on that have been discussed in the topic at [https://github.com/WebDevStudios/CMB2/issues/364](https://github.com/WebDevStudios/CMB2/issues/364). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Featured Galleries] make custom fields with ids invisible in metabox](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-custom-fields-with-ids-invisible-in-metabox/) * Thread Starter [Alex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyjam/) * (@flyjam) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-custom-fields-with-ids-invisible-in-metabox/#post-7661122) * With the plugin metabox is everything ok.

Maybe I’m wrong. Anyway, I can add it though javascript, as well as the popup size depends on the button clicked. Don’t worry. * Thank you. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Permalink Manager Lite] Pagination on Permalink editor tab not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pagination-on-permalink-editor-tab-not-working/) * Thread Starter [Alex](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flyjam/) * (@flyjam) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pagination-on-permalink-editor-tab-not-working/#post-7659663) * Yes, both are local.
