Custom media fields appear multiple times

    Hi, I hope someone can help with a problem I have with extended media types.

    I’ve already got several custom types/taxonomies that don’t have any issues, and now I have extended the media type to add some custom fields, mostly plain text but also some relationships.

    If I look at the attachment details for any image, these custom fields are listed repeatedly (6 times in fact), each showing the same data. If I change one of the relationship fields the copies ‘catch up’ to show the change after a moment, but if I try to edit one of the plain-text fields they will only hold a single character at a time.

    If I click on ‘edit more details’ to view the extended page, all the fields appear correctly and I can edit them as normal – this data is then shown correctly (albeit 6 times) back on the attachment details page. I can also pull the field data out using templates and smart tags, so it seems like a mostly visual/usability issue.

    I’ve uploaded a screen grab of the media section on my test site at the link below for clarity.

    Thanks

    Hi @adasha

    Are you sure this isn’t a plugin conflict? Perhaps a translation plugin?

    Cheers, Jory

    Hi Jory, I did wonder that too, as the main site also has the ‘Disable media pages’ plugin running.

    However, the problem is also on my test site, running a clean WP install with only Pods & Pods alternative cache on it (and WP sweep but that was added after)

    The test site’s pods data is a copy from the main site, using the migrate packages component. I did have a quick scan through the JSON to see if there was anything obvious but nothing jumped out at me, happy to share it if it helps!

    Thanks

    Hi @adasha

    Could you create a bug report on GitHub and provide the import packages so we can try to reproduce locally?

    Closing topic here in favor of GitHub!

    Cheers, Jory
