Hi colleagues,

since a few Days all Extra-Fields (i'm using Link, rop-Down and Textarea) become deleted after savin an Item at Front end (Backend works fine).

What i tried was using different:

• Editor (JCE, none)
• Template
• jQuery library (1.8.3, 1.11.0)
• Browser

Behavior stays same: Deleting on Save in Frontend.

Do you have a Suggestion, where i can look else?

Regards

Hello Franz,

Are all fields being deleted?
Did this happen directly after the update to 3.4.4?
Did you install any other extensions?

Also, can you look at the db to see if the values are being indeed deleted ?

Hi Krikor,

thanks for Questions, here are the Results:

Are all fields being deleted? Yes, all are deleted (Link, Drop-Down-List, Textarea), also indeed in DB
Did this happen directly after the update to 3.4.4? I recognize it 2 Days ago, 3.4.4-Update was 4 Days earlier. So maybe Joomla-Update, cause same deleting on another updatet Site. But i have to less knowledge about this technical Issues.
Did you install any other extensions? No new one installed.

Looked in Dev-Tools: Network-Protocol after click on "Save", but also to less knowledge to understand Infos.

Regards Brasilinero

Does this happen across all your site or just this one?
Also if it happens only in this site, please send me a list of your 3rd party extensions.

On all Sites it happens - in fine different Ways:

• One Site setting "'Extra fields' tab on edit form" on "Hide", Extra-Field in Item is also hidden in Item for Users, but not deleted in DB. Setting "'Extra fields' tab on edit form" back on "Show", Extra-Fields shown correct in Item.
• Two Sites deleting Extra-Field-Values at "Save" in Item and also in DB.

Just to say: Extra-Fields worked since i used them properly.

Hi Krikor,

Solution was to disable Gzip.

But "Hide 'Extra fields' tab on edit form" delete in DB "extra_fields" (Value is "[]") and " extra_fields_search" (Value is an empty Field). Setting "Show 'Extra fields' tab on edit form" nothing get deleted.

Tested on 2 Sites with multiple Items, LogIn-Outs, Controls in phpMyAdmin.

Regards

Franz you are a genius :)
Thank you for sharing the solution. I wouldn't have thought of gzip.

But "Hide 'Extra fields' tab on edit form" delete in DB "extra_fields" (Value is "[]") and " extra_fields_search" (Value is an empty Field). Setting "Show 'Extra fields' tab on edit form" nothing get deleted.

I am not sure I understand you.
When the setting is set to hide, the fields get deleted, while on any other case it doesn't?

Hi Krikor,

When the setting is set to hide, the fields get deleted, while on any other case it doesn't?: You understand right, thats the Case on both Site i tested. I can't understand why, but thats another Problem*g

Regards

I 'll try to reproduce the issue.

Add an item in the backend and add extrafields.
Select Hide for "Extra fields' tab on edit form"
Create a user with front-end capabilities.
Edit this item.
Extra fields are striped.

Am I correct? Also are we talking about 2.7 or 2.6.9?

Yeah, correct. It's enough to Save Item in Frontend and Extra-Fields are striped. I'm using 2.6.9., Joomla 3.4.4.
