Not remembering checked items

[tenaki]

I seem to have a problem with checked items not being remembered when you go back to edit an item.

For example I have a feature list with say 30 items 10 of which I check when I add a property, all works fine until I go back to edit that item I find no check boxes checked and I have to add them all again

Any ideas

After you check the boxes, and click submit, does it show listing saved at the top?

[tenaki]

Yes I think so, all the other stuff is saved

more proper to say that it's not POPULATING the checkboxes when editing a saved listing

[tenaki]

It's populating them, and saving them, but when you go back to edit them they are all clear.

It seems to be only check boxes in feature lists that aren't staying "populated" check boxes elsewhere are fine

[Mick]

when the edit listing page is generated it pulls all the data from the database and populates the page iwth that data.

In this case the listing edit page isn't populating the checkboxes of the home features when it is generated according to what is in the database.

Bug or something I am doing wrong?

[Mick]

appears to be a bug... however first step is always trying to decode the sometimes confusing posts about them ;-)

I'll test it tonight.. I see you posted a bug report about it so I'll test it tonight and fix it when I have time

[tenaki]

Many thanks, I did try to make it easy to read.....honest

I just checked one of my listings, and the fields are still POPULATED. Have you updated to 2.0.4?

[Mick]

Yep.. finally got a chance to test this and Smilin is right it works fine in 2.0.4 and the current SVN build as well.

What version are you using?

[tenaki]

Right I have done some checking and still think it's a bug.

The items I set up I set up as an agent, edited them and lost all populated feature 1+2 check box fields.

So I logged out and signed in as admin, no problem at all, I can edit to my hearts content and not loose anything

I just created a test agent on my practice site, created a new listing, uploaded a couple of pics, selected many home/community features, and logged out. I logged back in, and all features were still checked.

A total guess from me, would be either a problem with your mySQL, or when you uploaded version 2.0.4, not all files were uploaded. I have had that problem with SmartFTP, so now I watch very closely when updating.

Good luck!

Well I had another go, logged in as admin, been fine all day editing away, went to edit one tonight and all feature 1+2 lists were un-populated?

Just a thought .... if you login as admin, and check a listing you created as admin, are the boxes checked? When you may have assign that listing to another person, is that when the checks are not visible? I haven't tried editing a listing as an agent, that was created by admin.

That could be it you know, I will need to try a few goes at that and let you know
