• Hi
    after upgrading to WP 3.6, and after that upgrading to Nextgen 2.0.7, I discover I no longer can use the drop down list of the ordinary custom fields I’ve managed until now when a I add/edit a post: the list is plagued with nextgen terms, and I cannot get rid of them.

    Now I see:

    <select id="metakeyselect" name="metakeyselect">
    <option value="#NONE#">— Select —</option>
    <option value="aliases">aliases</option>
    <option value="code">code</option>
    <option value="comment_count">comment_count</option>
    <option value="comment_status">comment_status</option>
    <option value="css_stylesheets">css_stylesheets</option>
    <option value="default_source">default_source</option>
    <option value="display_settings">display_settings</option>
    <option value="enclosure">enclosure</option>
    <option value="entity_types">entity_types</option>
    <option value="et_ptemplate_settings">et_ptemplate_settings</option>
    <option value="filter">filter</option>
    <option value="format_content">format_content</option>
    <option value="guid">guid</option>
    <option value="ID">ID</option>
    <option value="id_field">id_field</option>
    <option value="menu_order">menu_order</option>
    <option value="name">name</option>
    <option value="pinged">pinged</option>
    <option value="ping_status">ping_status</option>
    <option value="post_author">post_author</option>
    <option value="post_content">post_content</option>
    <option value="post_content_filtered">post_content_filtered</option>
    <option value="post_date">post_date</option>
    <option value="post_date_gmt">post_date_gmt</option>
    <option value="post_excerpt">post_excerpt</option>
    <option value="post_mime_type">post_mime_type</option>
    <option value="post_modified">post_modified</option>
    <option value="post_modified_gmt">post_modified_gmt</option>
    <option value="post_name">post_name</option>
    <option value="post_parent">post_parent</option></select>

    What I can find, any entry in postmeta table will appear in this list, except if it starts with underscore… which Nextgen entries do NOT use.
    So my ordinary custom fields entries get lost because I only see nextgen entries (I suppose there are somo limitations in the quantity of items displayed, so my custom fields are lft outside…)

    I can still add manually a Custom Field, but the ability of select a predefined Custom Filed is lost, and the editor of a post don’t remember every special Custom Field we have build for the site to work.

    I don’t feel like uninstalling will solve anything, because the postmeta table will probably not change if I uninstall or downgrade the nextgen….
