Possible to retrieve protected Meta fields?

I found a solution that works for me:

comment out line 245 in admin/partials/settings-functions.php

if ( ! in_array( $post_type, $excluded_post_types ) ) {
				//$query .= "AND $wpdb->postmeta.meta_key NOT RegExp '(^[_0-9].+$)'";
				$query .= "AND $wpdb->postmeta.meta_key NOT RegExp '(^[0-9]+$)'";
			}

this is great, i didn’t get this to work with my own code and now i even have a nice gui to enable/disable protected fields!

thank you so much!

I suggest you could add an option (show/hide protected fields on the top of the settings page for the plugin) to make this use case available for all users.

Best
