    This is a fresh install, 2.1.5 beta, no 3rd party addons of any kind installed.

    When I go to create a custom member field it errors out with this:

    Fatal error: Call to private method Members::_valid_fieldname() from context ‘EE_Form_validation’ in /home/(user)/public_html/(system)/expressionengine/libraries/EE_Form_validation.php on line 643

    Just in case this has already been addressed as a bug and fixed, is there a manual fix you can lead me to?

    Hi, ewn. Hmmm… when did you last download? There was a fix put in for 2.1.5 to account for Matrix.

    Do you have any Accessories installed?

    I downloaded it yesterday late morning or early afternoon (5/18).  No accessories, no addons, fresh install.

    Sorry, yesterday was obviously 5/17.  I looked at my logs and I downloaded it at 9:06am PST yesterday, 5/17.  Was there a hotfix after that?  Seems unlikely…

    No, there hasn’t been another hotfix. Downloading now to see if I can replicate the problem.

    Did you use the Agile install?

    No, I didn’t use a theme when installing.  Thanks Sue.

    Hi ewn,

    Yes, definitely a bug. Luckily, the fix is easy - check the bug report. Thanks!
