Hello,

I don’t know how to do this :
I got a custom post type named Production. And a taxonomy named Format. Format can be “Movies” or “Photos”.
If I create a new Production, I want different fields (meta box) if it is a Movie or a Photo. Probably a gallery field for photos and text fields for videos links wich are on vimeo.
I think I know how to do with frontend (by testing if has term).
But how to do it with backend ?
Is there a way to hide certain meta boxes depending on taxonomy and show others ?

Thanks

This is done using location rules for the field group

Show only if Movies
Post Taxonomy is equal to Movies

No question is silly. Things can be easy to overlook when they are unfamiliar.
