Requirements

To run Meta Box, we recommend:

• PHP 7.4 or greater
• Latest version of WordPress

Meta Box also works with PHP 7.0 and older versions of WordPress. These versions have reached the official end of life and may expose your site to security vulnerabilities.

Installing Meta Box

Meta Box offers three different versions, each with slightly different installation steps.

We recommend using Meta Box Lite, a free version with essential features and a user-friendly interface.

Here is how to install it:

1. Go to our website, fill in your email, and download it.
2. Go to Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin.
3. Upload the downloaded file and click Install Now.

Then, click Activate to start using Meta Box Lite. You can see it in the admin dashboard.

For advanced features, buy a premium plan, and install the Meta Box AIO plugin with all extensions (both free and paid). :::
