Thread

I’ve only been recently notified of this issue, which I presume has been an issue since we upgraded to EE 2 many months ago. I was able to convert my FF Checkbox fields into EE 2 Checkbox fields so that the entry form seemed to work correctly. However, I now see that there are two problems.

Once I updated the markup, the content entered under EE 1 displays, but all as one list item. So if the entry had three checkboxes checked, it renders…

<ul>
    <li>Item 1 Item 2 Item 3</li>
</ul>

Also, if you edit a previously entered entry, none of the checkboxes appear to be checked. Attempting to update by checking any checkbox and submitting the form overwrites the EE 1 information completely, with only the newly checked items now being rendered.

Is there anything to be done here other than manually updating all 200 entries?

Hello grovberg,

I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

I am not aware of another way, but have you tried asking the same question over on the P&T forum? They might have a solution for you.

Please let me know if that sounds like a good option and what they say.

Cheers,

Just wanted to update the thread to say that I did indeed get help over at P&T. The P&T Field Pack recreates all the old FF field groups and is a free download.

Worth mentioning that you’ll need to manually populate the list exactly the same as before for everything to work seamlessly.

Thanks for the suggestion Shane.
