    Hi there!

    First of all thank you for this amazing plugin! It has extremely valuable features and I’ve been using it more and more.

    I have one feature request. I understand it is not high priority but since I was playing around with Real Time Collaboration (the upcoming feature, currently available via Gutenberg plugin), I found that Complianz will disable the feature due to its usage of Metaboxes in the Cookiebanner side panel. You can read more about why here:

    I understand this might be something you’ll only take a look in the future, just wanted to make sure it is somewhere in the roadmap 🙂

    Update here: while chatting with members of the Core team they mentioned that in case you can make your metabox work with RTC, then you could mark it as compatible like this:

    add_meta_box(
      'my-metabox-id',
      'My Meta Box',
      'my_metabox_render',
      'post',
      'normal',
      'default',
      array( '__rtc_compatible_meta_box' => true ) // <- The compatibility flag
    );

    Hi @wetah ,

    Thanks a lot for the kind words about the plugin, and for the report.

    I’ve created a task for our development team as a feature request, so they can look into making our Cookiebanner metaboxes compatible with Real Time Collaboration. The pointer you shared from the Core team about the __rtc_compatible_meta_box flag is really helpful, and I’ve included it in the task so the devs have everything they need.

    I can’t give you a timeline at this stage, since RTC is still an upcoming feature, but it’s now on our radar and documented internally. I’ll make sure any progress on this is followed up on.

    Thanks again for taking the time to flag it, much appreciated!

    Best regards,
    Antonio

    Hi @wetah,

    Good news, and thanks again for the great pointer on this.

    We’ve added Real Time Collaboration compatibility to our metaboxes in the latest version of Complianz. Both the Cookiebanner metabox in the side panel and the document metaboxes now use the __rtc_compatible_meta_box flag you shared from the Core team, so RTC is no longer disabled by our plugin.

    If you update to the latest version and enable Real Time Collaboration, you should find everything works together nicely now. Since RTC is still an upcoming feature, do let me know if you run into any edge cases while testing, and I’ll be happy to take a look.

    Best regards,
    Antonio
