PHP Documentation

<?php
/**
	 * Short-circuits the return value when fetching a meta field by meta ID.
	 *
	 * The dynamic portion of the hook name, `$meta_type`, refers to the meta object type
	 * (post, comment, term, user, or any other type with an associated meta table).
	 * Returning a non-null value will effectively short-circuit the function.
	 *
	 * Possible hook names include:
	 *
	 *  - `get_post_metadata_by_mid`
	 *  - `get_comment_metadata_by_mid`
	 *  - `get_term_metadata_by_mid`
	 *  - `get_user_metadata_by_mid`
	 *
	 * @since 5.0.0
	 *
	 * @param stdClass|null $value   The value to return.
	 * @param int           $meta_id Meta ID.
