Strange bug when using Fluid Field

News and General

It seems like Fluid fieldtype is buggy with EE 6.3.5. My english is not so good, but I will try to explain.

The bug happens when I do this:

I create two fieldtypes, a grid named “Title Content” and a filegrid named “Image with caption”. “Title Content” has two Grid Fields: “Title” (Textfield) and “Size” (Radio buttons). “Image with caption” has one Grid Field named “Caption” (Textarea). The fieldtypes are then added to the fluid field named “Fluidcontent”.

I make a new entry and add content by using “Title content” og “Image with caption” in the Fluid-field. (See screenshot #1}

No problems yet.

Then I add another “Title Content” in the fluid field. (See screenshot #2)

Still no problems.

But when I now tries to add another picture in the already existing “Image with caption” field, I get a strange error. No other explanation than “Cannot Update Entry, please review and fix errors”. A red box around the radio buttons in the “Title Content” is present. (See screenshot #3)

I’ve tried to remove the grid field with radio buttons, but the bug appears non the less.

You are correct. There is a bug as you describe. This has been documented & submitted in Github. You can see it here with workarounds: https://github.com/ExpressionEngine/ExpressionEngine/issues/2145

I believe it is patched in version 7, but not sure when it will find its way into the version 6 update. Should be soon though I would think.

Thanks Russ, the workaround you referred to worked nicely! Hope they fixes this in future updates.

Unfortunately the workaround was causing other issues, so we had to remove it from 7.0.3

Here’s another pull request that will hopefully solve this once and forever: https://github.com/ExpressionEngine/ExpressionEngine/pull/2242
