Description

Right now if you add_meta_box() to a custom page, like using add_submenu_page() and then calling do_meta_boxes(), the screen options and post box JS don't work automagically. They should.

Sorry, I lied... I meant that patch should work but only with a fix for #9346.

Note that 'postbox' is also needed for collapsing and dragging boxes.

  • Milestone Awaiting Review → Future Release
  • Type defect (bug) → enhancement

Also, we have to admit that this is an enhancement.

Currently, plugins can hook into "load-$pagehook", for example, and enqueue the script manually.
