Custom fields and 7.0 - 7.0.1 upgrade

IgorL posted 4th of May 2010 in Community Voice. 8 comments.

Hello everybody. I guess you've already missed me, well some of you :-) I want to assure you that everything is ok and the situation in Kyrgyzstan is gradually stabilizing.

Well, now let's leave the Kyrgyz battlefields and look closer on our beloved Dolphin creature. I'm sure we can find many things to fight against here :-) This beast can't just calmly lie and let us do whatever we want with it :-) It fights back! And one of the problems it responds with is inability to change custom fields after the upgrade.

That is, you can't change these fields' captions, descriptions, make it mandatory, etc. The Beast will respond that such field already exists.

So, my advice would be as follows: you should complete all work with the custom fields BEFORE you really upgrade your script. Don't worry: our brave knights - developers - are already aware of this problem and will try to "convince" the Beastie Beast not to be so naughty :-) They will try their best, that's for sure ;-)

I hope my allegory didn't confuse y'all :-) Your comments are warmly welcomed.

sorry but I have one for you:)

new installation of 7.0.1

Dashboard - it marks - Dolphin 7.0 - Update to 7.0.1

Everything went well during installation - I go to the admin to install the modules
Select all and install - wait 3-4 second - and I have a window that opens - opening modules.php - with this message :
Set-Cookie: _check_dependencies=1; expires=Mon, 03-May-2010 13:57:16 GMT;

then - groups - is in the Installed Modules - but not in the list of modules - on the Left - are the last 3 - Locations - Store - Wall

If you are careful phpmyadmin can be used to make changes.

I hope this is fixed soon! things are taking way to long to update using back end tricks.

I am really glad you are Ok Igor.

I am having a problem with being able to change my fields too. they do not save. I have heard that the bug was fixed, but certainly not on my program..

Cheers buddy.. skype: statelyone

This seems extremely major to me, and the advice, "you should complete all work with the custom fields BEFORE you really upgrade your script" - is a bit late and not very useful. Really, what you are saying here is that the 7.01 upgrade just doesn't work. Personally I think you should stop all new downloads of 7.01 until this is corrected - everyone will have to fix this.

@CALTRADE - no need for damage limitation - the installer does not work either - LOL
