Can’t Edit Field Key

    There is a recent bug with the WC Fields factory Admin fields. We cannot change the Field Key. I have a field that used to be a certain name and got renamed, though I did not do this. Some update resulted in Field groups being duplicated at some point. And this bug on field keys also appeared.

    To reproduce:

    1) Add a new Admin Field to a group. In this case, I added a date field.
    2) When you create the field, the ability to give the field a Field key is not present, so you have to update the field group.
    3) Atter updating the field group, attempt to edit The field key and update the field.
    4) Update the field group. The Field Key name reverts back to what it was originally.

    As we have much functionality driven off of these fields, we really must be able to edit the Field Key. Please let me know what I can do to help.

    Here is a screenshot:

    Also, the ability to duplicate a field is a bit buggy. The field is duplicated, bu the original field is labeled “copy”.

    Thanks so much! It is a great plugin. I am happy to contribute $ to getting this working.

    Hi,

    1. In your wp-admin screen go to Fields Factory -> Admin Fields
    2. Click on a that particular fields post.
    3. Once inside the post, click on a field (which needs to be the key updated).
    4. After the field config view expanded, Click on the Field Key, this will make the Field Key into edit mode.
    5. Now update the key, once done, press the Enter Key.
    6. Finally Click on the Update Field button.

    Yes, that is EXACTLY what I have done repeatedly. I make the change, save the field. Then I press update to save the field group, and it reverts the field key back to what it was. This is why I reported the issue.

    I was able to update the field. The key is pressing Enter after typing the new ID while leaving the cursor in the field. Thank you.
