 * I have only been able to add one custom field on my very first post to my blog.
   All other posts including the first one now when trying to add a custom field
   tells me “Please provide a custom field value”, but I have.
 * I click the “Enter New”, its prompts for a name and a value for this custom field,
   after filling both out and clicking the “Add Custom Field” button, I keep getting
   the above message..
 * Anyone know what going on here? I have disabled all plug-ins to only have this
   still continue.

 * Ahhh got it to work, went and tried to view some of my data tables, and it kept
   telling me that two of them crashed and needed to be repaired.
 * Now I come from a zend framework background and web apps like magento who use
   huge amounts of tables and data passing between the application and the database..
   never had and issue of needing to repair a data table before.
 * Oh well its fixed now, that’s all that’s important!
