 * Hi,
 * The Meta box plugin works fine, but on my standard posts with no custom taxonomy
   I use the default WordPress Custom Fields, when I try to add one of these custom
   fields it doesn’t get added to the list of Custom Fields directly. When I refresh
   the edit page of the post the Custom Field is added.
 * When I temporarily disabled the Meta Box plugin and tried adding a Custom Field
   it did get added without the need for a page refresh.
 * I only use the Meta Box plugin on a custom taxonomy, so how come it’s interfering
   with standard posts which don’t use any Meta Box fields? And how can I fix this?
 * Kind regards,
    Jan

 * After a lot of frustration and searching on the internet I found the problem.
   Sort of.
 * After reinstalling the WordPress core this problem and multiple others went away.
   
   Why deinstalling this plugin seems to fix it, I’ve got no clue.
 * My problem has been solved atleast.
