* After last update there are some problems with Custom fields and looping via
pods()
1. Incorrect fields work. For example – date fields show nothing to pick,
empty dropdown – relationship fields whith list view autocomplete lost drag’n’drop–
wysiwyg looses next lines, updating existing posts stucks all texts in one paragraph.
When I open post editor wysiwyg fields ignore existing “next lines” and updating
makes every text as one paragraph on fornt-end.
* 2. Looping. Orderby “date DESC” doesn’t work, posts just ordered by post_title.
* $params = array(
‘limit’ = 300, ‘orderby’ = ‘date DESC’ ); pods(‘services’,$
params);

‘where’ => $where, ‘limit’ => 30, ‘orderby’ => ‘date DESC’ );

1. For the date field, I can’t reproduce what you’re talking about here, can you
post more details about that specific problem to our GitHub at [https://pods.io/submit/](https://pods.io/submit/)
2. I’ve reported the sorting issue with autocomplete here: [https://github.com/pods-framework/pods/issues/6206](https://github.com/pods-framework/pods/issues/6206)—
we’ll get to working on a fix for this in an upcoming release this month.
3. What are you seeing here, it’s trimming the extra lines at the start/end of
the content? Or are you saying it’s removing extra lines within the content
like taking 2-3 linebreaks and removing all of them? Can you post more details
about that specific problem to our GitHub at [https://pods.io/submit/](https://pods.io/submit/)
4. The issue with orderby `date DESC` should technically be fixed by Pods 2.8.1
which is about to go out in a minute. When it goes out, can you please verify
it addresses your problem? The correct orderby usage is actually `t.post_date
DESC` for that field based on Documentation here: [https://docs.pods.io/code/pods/find/find-reference-table/](https://docs.pods.io/code/pods/find/find-reference-table/)

* 1. The problem is with date format. For examle setting format as 21.10.2021 crashes
dropdown. And date data stored in old versions and displayed with new date field
in this format has not native look, seems like straight DB value. 2022-01-24T00:
00:00+03:00
2. Thanks 3. New WYSISYG field removes new lines within the content.
I suppose the reason is ignoring “next line” symbols of old editor strored in
db. If we go next line in old wysiwyg editor on “text” tab and swap to visual
tab we had next lines in text without any additional tags wrapping our content.
But now when you set next lines in text tab, then turning back to visual – all
next lines ignores. The same thing with the data already stored in db. It stores
whith a specific symbol to make next line, but new editor ignores it and stucks
lines together. New editor makes new lines only with setting tag by clicking
shift + enter in visual editor and ignores old format of next lines. 4. now it
works with t.post_date DESC, thanks
* One more problem on test copy of only one of the sites:
5. Pods editor. Pods-
> Edit Pod -> Pod throws me this

* 3. Just looked to DB, and it’s real. All “next lines” were stored in DB as \r\
n by old WYSIWYG editor. New editor ignores \r\n and we have stucked paragraphs
instead.
5. and if I turn off debug mode site throws 502 Bad Gateway from Apache

* For me the problem with orderby still exists within 2.8.1
I use the Gutenberg
block “Pods List-Items”.

* About `date DESC`.
Upgrading to 2.8.1 doesn’t look fixing the problem. After
changing the code like
* ```
$params = array(
'where' => $where,
'limit' => 3,
'orderby' => 't.post_date DESC'
);
```
* it went good.
Thank you for the suggestions.

* [@rinoxstudio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rinoxstudio/) Regarding the
new lines and the editor, are you using the new Quill editor? Unfortunately it
does not support `
` tags and it only supports `` output. Our team is finding
some workarounds for this but for now your best bet is to continue to use TinyMCE
if you need support for `
` line breaks.

* I’ll continue looking into the `date` alias issue in `orderby` and will get it
resolved in Pods 2.8.2

* [@sc0ttkclark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sc0ttkclark/) I am using Tiny
MCE. Before 2.8 line breaks in WYSIWYG field were stored in database with \r\
n symbols, after 2.8 update WYSIWYG field ignores \r\n and stucks lines together.
