Generic fields not showing in attendance list

    Hello Franky,

    we have an upcoming event and I prepared a list of registered persons.
    This worked fine.
    Since very recently some fields are not showing anymore in the list. This are custom fields and it seems that they are marked as “Generic” fields whereas the other fields are “People” fields.

    Basically this is not a big problem but I can’t change the field type (a warning is showing but still I can’t change this).
    Somehow I need to show this information in the list (again).
    Please tell we what I have to change – don’t mind if I have to update the database manually.

    Thanks and best regards,
    Bernd

    I just bumped into this issue myself ??
    I already have a fix ready to go (but it needs to wait till this evening, so please be patient for some more hours).
    Concerning the warning: there I’m curious. The warning should show (because the field is being used in replies), but you should still be able to change the type …

    Version 2.1.6 is released to fix this.

    Hi Franky,

    thank you VERY much!
    I just updated and the fields are showing again.

    What I noticed:
    I had changed the field type of one field from “Generic” to “People”.
    After the update the (previously not displayed) “Generic” fields were showing but for the field I changed to “People”.
    I then changed the field type of this field back to “Generic” – and then it was displayed again.

    Not a problem but it seems that changing the field type is not a good idea.

    Thank you!

    This means that the answers were not linked to the person, but to an rsvp reply probably.
    The next version will block the “field purpose” update if the field is already being used (field type and values will still be changeable of course).
    Anyway, it was a bug, but it helped me narrow down other problems too ??
