I am trying to: Save Post Fields using a frontend form, and display on the frontend.
Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link
I expected to see: Under 'Regions' heading, "NYC Area" and "Tri-State Area (NY/NJ/CT)". When using this Post Form, checkbox data seems to be saved and retrieved, but the data is not saved to the actual post itself, and is therefore not accessible via Views/Content Templates, or the Dashboard (Post Edit screen).
Instead, I got: Only "Tri-State Area (NY/NJ/CT)" <--- example. All checkbox fields in this group behave similarly
Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.
Thank you for sharing the all required information.
Do you mean that when you create a new entry using the Toolset post form the checkboxes fields are saved but in the admin backend, the checkboxes are shown as unchecked even though its actually checked (selected) from frontend form? If yes - Can you please share the URL where you added the post form?
Whether creating a new entry or editing an old one, on the form, actually, the checkboxes DO work -- so when I go to edit an entry, I do see the proper data. But the data somehow doesn't get saved to the actual item, so when we view the entry on the frontend, it's not there, and if we view the data from the entry's edit screen on the Dashboard (not using the CRED form), the data is not there. So clearly the data keys are being saved, but something has changed that's made the data not save properly, and that's what I'm struggling with.
To be clear, some fields DO save -- it seems limited to one field group, the 'Maestra Professional Data' group. Weirdly, when an item has a custom value set for "Show one of these two values:," the field DOES display on the frontend. So it seems to me a key/value store problem.
An example of the form: hidden link (must be admin)
This has been working for a long time with no issues, so this is a new thing.
