Hi,
I am learning how to work with Toolset and I need bit of help.

I have done:
- Create a Post Type ("Casa")
- Created a Post Form to le the user submit a post type "Casa"

On post form I have used: post title, featured image and a multiline field with slug "descripcion"

Te issue is that if I want to edit that post on the back end I have access to post title and featured image, but multiline is missing.

I have created a custom field group to appear on post type "Casas", and a "multiline" field with same slug "description" in case it get related, but everytime I create a post from form, that field appear empty in back

Thanks

Hi Raul,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Could you send me a screenshot of your Post form on the edit screen so that I can see what fields are on the form? I want to ensure that the fields are the exact same on the form.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Raul,

Thank you for the screenshot.

I'm able to see the issue. It seems you've added a generic field to the form. If you do this then you will need to add the field name as "wpcf-description". However i'm seeing that the description custom field is there for you to drag and drop onto your form.

Under Custom Fields you should see the Description field.

Thanks,
Shane
