Meta Box AIO is a WordPress plugin by MetaBox for managing custom fields, metadata, and content tools in one package.

Product facts

Version: 3.13.1
Released: 20 October 2026
Type: Plugin
Licence: GPL
Included in: Every plan, or $6.39 / year on its own

Overview

Managing custom fields and metadata can involve several separate tools. Meta Box AIO brings the Meta Box framework and its extensions into one plugin package, giving developers and site builders a centralized way to manage these capabilities. It supports projects that need custom fields or tailored WordPress content, with extension options available from a settings page.

Choose which extensions are enabled through the settings interface, or use filters to manage them programmatically. The plugin also migrates field group data to a React-based interface during upgrades. When an extension is installed individually, it takes priority over the bundled version, which can help developers test that extension separately.

Features

Combined framework and extensions: Use the Meta Box framework and its extensions together in one plugin package for custom field and metadata work on WordPress sites.
Extension settings: Enable or disable extensions from a dedicated settings page to choose which capabilities are available for a particular site.
Programmatic controls: Use filters to manage enabled extensions programmatically or hide extension settings from users.
Field group migration: Migration moves field group data to the React-based interface during upgrades, keeping existing field group data in the updated interface.
Individual extension priority: When an extension is installed individually, it takes priority over its bundled counterpart, allowing separate testing before updating the package.
Centralized extension management: Manage the package's extensions from one location in the WordPress admin settings, rather than configuring each bundled extension separately.
