Changes already saved at preview

    First of all – thanks for this great plugin! It helped us greatly to customise content on our >200k users/month website!

    With the most recent version(s) of the plugin the field contents I am unfortunately experiencing a major issue: fields are already saved and published when previewing a page. Is that issue known / getting fixed? Even better: would it be possible to apply versioning to custom fields (as it is the case for the standard content field)?

    Also, I experienced that from WYSIWYG fields are sometimes removed when saving a page (I could not consistently fully reproduce this issue yet). Is there some filtering at the works or what could cause this issue?

    Thanks for your help!

  • I caught the same problem. CFS_REVISIONS doesn’t help.

    @bwirmer As @talgat mentioned, it is possible to version custom fields using the CFS_REVISIONS constant. However, it could fill up your postmeta table fast, especially if your site has lots of fields and supports unlimited revisions.

    fields are already saved and published when previewing a page

    So when you try previewing the changes for an already-published post, you’re saying that the custom fields appear?

    Thanks for your feedback! So I assume putting something like this in the wp_config should work?

    define( ‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, 3 );
    define( ‘CFS_REVISIONS’, TRUE );

    Regarding preview: yes, when I preview an already-published post, the changes in the custom fields are already saved permanently (i.e. also showing up in the public non-previewed post).

    //Edit: just checked – I can confirm talgats observation that the above-mentioned preview issue also occurs with CFS_REVISIONS TRUE
