Use form field inputs to inject field value on CMB2 metaboxes

I need some help on CMB2 plugin for WordPress. Would you?

I have a QuForm and I’m using its fields values to populate a new post, via this function:

        add_filter('quform_post_process_1', function (array $result, Quform_Form $form) {
            $title = $form->getValue('quform_1_3');
            $content = $form->getValue('quform_1_9');

            $post = array(
                'post_title' => $title,
                'post_content' => $content,
                'post_type' => 'ficha',
        'post_status' => 'publish',
        );

            wp_insert_post($post);
         
            return $result;
        }, 10, 2);

quform_1_3 refers to “Name” field on my form. quform_1_9 refers to “E-mail” field.

When someone, on my frontend, fills that form, a new post is generated with those info inserted on post_title and post_content. That post is marked as ‘ficha’ CTP. Post status is setted as PUBLISHED.

Now, my doubt.

In this CTP, named as “ficha”, I have a CMB2 custom metabox with 2 fields: “name” and “e-mail”.

On my function, how can I use those quform form fielsd (quform_1_3 and quform_1_9) to insert their values (filled by someone on my frontend) in those metaboxes fields? Is this possible?

Something like getting post meta and inserting quform_1_3 variable in it… I’m breaking my head with this like 3 days long.

Can you help me? I would be so thankful.

Vyctor

My metabox creation:

` add_action( ‘cmb2_admin_init’, ‘cmb2_sample_metaboxes’ );
/**
* Define the metabox and field configurations.
*/
function cmb2_sample_metaboxes() {

/**
* Initiate the metabox
*/
$cmb = new_cmb2_box( array(
‘id’ => ‘qu_form’,
‘title’ => __( ‘Dados da Ficha’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘object_types’ => array( ‘ficha’, ), // Post type
‘context’ => ‘normal’,
‘priority’ => ‘high’,
‘show_names’ => true, // Show field names on the left
// ‘cmb_styles’ => false, // false to disable the CMB stylesheet
// ‘closed’ => true, // Keep the metabox closed by default
) );

// Regular text field
$cmb->add_field( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Nome’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘desc’ => __( ‘Aqui vai o nome’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘id’ => ‘ficha_nome’,
‘type’ => ‘text’,
‘show_on_cb’ => ‘cmb2_hide_if_no_cats’, // function should return a bool value
// ‘sanitization_cb’ => ‘my_custom_sanitization’, // custom sanitization callback parameter
// ‘escape_cb’ => ‘my_custom_escaping’, // custom escaping callback parameter
// ‘on_front’ => false, // Optionally designate a field to wp-admin only
// ‘repeatable’ => true,
) );

// Email text field
$cmb->add_field( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘E-mail’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘desc’ => __( ‘Aqui vai o e-mail’, ‘cmb2’ ),
‘id’ => ‘ficha_email’,
‘type’ => ‘text_email’,
// ‘repeatable’ => true,
) );

// Add other metaboxes as needed
