Hello,
There seems to be an error when i am using Toolset.

I am using custom fields created with another plugin (ACF). The problem is that when i go the "Manage non-toolset Post Fields" the custom fields that i have created does not show up. So if I add new custom fields for a given post type they does not update under "Manage non-toolset Post Fields".
Worth noting is that the ones i had created before using Toolset does appear correctly. So it is only all the ones i create now that does not appear.

How do I fix this?
I assume it might be a cache problem but I have not idea how to fix that in that case.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

I've performed some tests with the custom fields created through the "Advanced Custom Fields" plugin, but couldn't reproduce this issue.

It is important to note, that only those fields appear in the "Post Field Control" section which have at least one value saved, in the database. This means that if you'll create a field through the "Advanced Custom Fields" plugin, it will not show under the "Post Field Control", until you'll go to any post/page edit screen and save some value in that field.

In case the issuse still persists, you can share temporary admin login details, so that I can see how the missing fields are set up in the admin area

Note: Your next reply will be private and please make a complete backup copy, before sharing the access details.

regards,
Waqar
