How to assess and correct for publication bias in three-level meta-analysis？

Dear Mathias
I was recently reading your book on meta-analysis"Doing Meta-Analysis in R: A Hands-on Guide"，I used the method of three-level meta-analysis inside to complete my graduation design. One problem I encountered was that the results of the three-level meta-analysis were calculated using rma.mv in metafor, while the functions like eggers.test , trimfill in Chapter 9 Publication Bias cannot be applied to the results of rma.mv. I wonder how to correct the results of the three-level meta-analysis for publication bias. That's very important to me and hope you can help me, thank you!
not quite sure how far you got with your issue and which package you are using, however, in case you are using metafor, this might help you:
