Title: Custom fields suddenly stopped working in administrator
Post by: cvrak on April 06, 2017, 17:32:53 PM
Hi,

I'm designing a e-shop, and face a strange problem: I've set a multivariant custom fields and for some time, they worked fine.
Suddenly, adding new products it's not possible to add the multivariant custom fields.
I use VM3.0.18, Joomla 3.6.5, PHP 5.538

What can I do to fix it??
Chris

Trying to figure out what's wrong, I've set error reporting --> max. No errors...
Seems that the pull down menu for choosing custom fields is dead...
It's frustrating, some days ago was working fine.
Is it possible that admin template could cause the problem?
VM 3.0.18  -  Joomla 3.6.5   -  PHP 5.5.38

Any ideas?
thanks

Hi,

I think I have about 200 children oblects. It sounds strange to cause the problem.
I'll try the update and let you know.

My mistake, VM 3.2.1
The problem remains, I have another one!

In product view, category is not showing, VM tries to load category structure. See attached pic

URGENT!!
After upgrading to Joomla 3.7.0 & PHP ver 7, the problem is bigger:
In all products with custom fields created before the problem, now it's not possible to modify custom fields, because they are not visible!! This happens only to backend. VM 3.0.18
Pls can anyone help??
