You will see 3 “**_participants_database**” in the list. - Select “**_participants_database_fields**“, change the name you need, click on “**Execute**” in the bottom and it’s done. * Conclusion: having non-English character in a field name is NOT a good idea. * Regards, - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Participants Database] How to show “Other” content field](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-show-other-content-field/) * Thread Starter [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/) * (@norlam) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-show-other-content-field/#post-12479940) * Ok.

His record will contain 3 values: “White, Yellow, Gray”. * I understand what you said as it is possible to show “White, Yellow, Gray” as a result by “filtering out” White and Yellow. But how to do this? * [pdb_list filter=”color~White&color~Yellow&color!” fields=”color”] will not show this record, since White and Yellow have been checked. - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Participants Database] How to show “Other” content field](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-show-other-content-field/) * Thread Starter [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/) * (@norlam) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-show-other-content-field/#post-12470803) * Thanks for your rapid response. * You confirm what I finished to think. * Regards - This reply was modified 6 years, 2 months ago by [norlam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norlam/).
