i use a Pixel Green derivat skin and had defined/used a custom field, which after upgrade from 6.7.7 to 6.8.2
is not visible any more in the posts.

just for test purpose, i added a new custom field to the relevant post type. the new field shows in the post edit form, but it does not show in the blog itself.

at the end of the 'Edit post type' form, i get a warning
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in ../inc/items/views/_itemtype.form.php on line 298

and i think this was not there before. don't know, if that makes the difference?

any idea?

Please post as many screenshots as possible to show all aspects of this problem so that we can try to reproduce it. Exact custom field names before and after upgrade would also be useful.

don't know what might be helpful to screenshot ... ahh, one more bit of information: i did NOT change the setup of the blog, only upgraded. therefore the question 'exact custom field names before and after' somehow does not apply, it was the same.
i had a custom field called BlogNo, which i still have ... and in the second screenshot is documented the post form and the BlogNo-field is there as well as the value it should have: 03 (should indicate that the field as well as the value are in the database?).
the second custom field 'test custom field' was added only after the problem occured

probably something has happened to the skin. where in the pixel green skin would i find reference to custom fields?

ah, what a surprise: when i try to change to value of the custom field content, i get a 'Bad Request, The parameters of your request are invalid'.

in debug documentation, it starts with the lines:

Notice: Undefined variable: debug_jslog in /homepages/25/d30688299/htdocs/click-to-help/conf/_config.php on line 110

Thanks for the extra info. We'll check this.

On your side, can you quickly switch to the Bootstrap Blog skin and check if the problem also exists there for you?

Thanks.

Thanks Yura, the 'undefined variable'-message is gone ... perfect.

regarding the Bad Request, debug mode produces:

does that help already or do you need more?

Thank you for the debug info.

Notice: Undefined variable: debug_jslog in /homepages/25/d30688299/htdocs/click-to-help/conf/_config.php on line 110

I think your /conf/_advanced.php has no line $debug_jslog = 'pwd'; https://github.com/b2evolution/b2evolution/blob/release/6.7.x/conf/_advanced.php#L24, please update this file on your server. The config var $debug_jslog must be defined at least to 0.

Illegal value received for parameter «content_height»!

Sorry to warm up this old case, but i was too busy to follow up on this earlier.
Now, after upgrading to the latest 6.9.3. version, i saw that still no value for custom fields is shown.

I checked the manual and found at http://b2evolution.net/man/custom-fields that a skin needs to have included proper code for displaying custom field values, which is

<?php $Item->custom_fields(); ?>

I don't know where exactly I have to put this (would be helpful if the manual could be a bit more detailed on this) in the Pixel Green skin (as well as in Bootstrap Blog skin, because not showing neither) if that should be the cause of the failure, which would be strange as it had worked with earlier b2e-versions with this same Pixel Green skin.

@ramadama the problem explaining this better in the manual is that each skin could be built in a different way, so places where <?php $Item->custom_fields(); ?> must be placed may vary. Perhaps an example of how to do it in one of the standard skins would be enough.

For example, in the case of Bootstrap Blog skin, it might make sense to display custom fields just before the footer of the post, so you need to copy skins_fallback_v6/_item_content.inc.php into the skin's folder and include <?php $Item->custom_fields(); ?> at the right place, as shown in the screenshot below.

In the case of Pixel Green skin, you need to do pretty much the same but copying the template from the skins_fallback_v5 folder.

Perfect. Custom fields are back ... thanks a lot, your explanation helped!
