I am trying to: The custom field "location" provide front end info to the client, so I want to type the information in and it should save, like usually.

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link - when you hover over the farm the distance to the farm ("location" field) should display.

I expected to see: It work fine before. "location" field shows when hovering over the farm, but added new famr and now it does not work.

Instead, I got: Just updated the plugin, and created a new farm page, and every thing work fine, the only thing that does not work is the "location" field, it just dispare each time I update the page.

Hi, how is the location information added to the page? Please copy + paste any shortcodes or custom code you are using to display the location custom field value. What kind of custom field is the location field?

The Type is Accom2, when you create a new post, the "location" (see attached) which I type in for each post, disapear as soon as I "publish" the post.

The old Accom posts still stay and show the location front-end

Okay I logged in and updated your plugin to Types 3.0.4. There was a bug in Types 3.0.3 that caused problems saving some custom field values. It appears to be working correctly now, can you confirm?
