    $color = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'country_bg_color', true );
    ?>
    
    

<?php }
Step 3 –Saving Metabox
 
function aft_save_meta_box_data( $post_id ) {
    if ( !isset( $_POST['aft_meta_box_nonce'] ) ) {
        return;
    }

    if ( !wp_verify_nonce( $_POST['aft_meta_box_nonce'], 'aft_meta_box' ) ) {
        return;
    }
    if ( defined( 'DOING_AUTOSAVE' ) && DOING_AUTOSAVE ) {
        return;
    }
    if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_post', $post_id ) ) {
        return;
    }
   
    $country_bg_color = ( isset( $_POST['country_bg_color'] ) ? sanitize_html_class( $_POST['country_bg_color'] ) : '' );
    update_post_meta( $post_id, 'country_bg_color', $country_bg_color );
