BUG in custom_fields: Where to submit it?

[youssefaoun]

Hello,

I don't know if any of you have seen this before:
- In the manifest I have put:

     'custom_fields'=>array(
        array(
            'name' => 'school_code',
            'label' => 'School Code',
            'type' => 'text',
            'max_size' => 25,
            'require_option' => 'optional',
            'default_value' => 'In',
            'ext1' => '',
            'ext2' => '',
            'ext3' => '',
            'audited' => 0,
            'module' => 'Accounts',
        ), 
  

- In the Edit Custom Fields list, the new field has really the type : "text"

-If I click over the field to edit it, the type inside is : "textarea"

- In the module where this field is published, it is considered as a "textarea"

Here is the document I followed.

If it is a bug, where to submit it?
otherwise HELP!!!

Hi there,


I'm not sure where to start... the document you're referencing is from a very old release (3.5) and I'm guessing that you'd be better off following something more recent, like the Developer Wiki with its more recent examples.

Regarding the question about where to submit bugs, you can submit any code or documentation-related bugs via this link.

Hope this helps.

Hi All!

I think it is not a bug!

So when you add new field with name 'Text' the db type for this field will be 'varchar' if you add a new field with name 'Text Area' the db type for this field will be 'text'

So when you see existing db type for the field and it is 'text' this means that you have added the field with Name 'Text Area'

please see to the attachments.

Hope it will help you!
