Field & Sort: only field names shown

Hi Klaus,

easiest thing may be to reset all the options – there’s a button in the settings.
Then step by step – first find fields, then switch off all the keys and fields you don’t need, then head to the configure a list screen.

The Fields & Sort tab always lists an input field for the display order if it lists the fieldname, so I don’t really know how it can possibly just do a fieldname without the input field for the display order.

Let me know how you go please

Oooops, that’s weird:
Just notice a horizontal scroll bar under the configuration window. When I pulled the very small bar very, very, very far to the right edge of the window I saw the “missing” columns. But now I cannot see the field names on the left…
I changed one field position and updated, but that did not change anything.
But then I found out: one new meta field had an incredible long name with only “\” in it. Changed the field name and it works fine. I am so proud… ??

Is there a safe way to exclude or delete meta fields that are obsolete? I have some redundant fields because of failed data imports.

Thanks again
Klaus

Hi Klaus
Always satisfying to solve something ??
Yes there is a way to exclude meta keys (sadly needed because some other plugins do really weird things when creating meta data). Go to 2nd menu item “Excluded meta keys” and tick ‘exclude’ or ‘delete meta records’ then click update or Delete button at top.
