I have been using the "Contact Information" field in meta data to capture email addresses and randomly, this field is getting deleted. It's been somewhat hard to track, but it seems to happen when:
- a non-post-author adds a top-level editorial comment (but not if they reply to a comment made by the post author)
- possibly when the post gets scheduled by a non-post-author
@rjmw Thanks for the report. We've noticed a similar issue with Bulk Edit but haven't been able to replicate the issue as you describe. But I think that the cause is likely the same.
We'll work on a fix and hopefully get it out soon.
Hi,
Are you still experiencing this issue in the latest version of Edit Flow?
Thanks,
Scott
I just tested both of these scenarios with the v0.7 development version of Edit Flow and wasn't able to reproduce. I haven't made any significant modifications to code that would affect how editorial metadata is saved since v0.6.3, so I don't think I've changed anything either.
At this point in time, I won't rule out the bug entirely but definitely could use more details on when it manifests itself.
