Description:
A new channel {individually_coded_entries} I created after installing Publisher seems not to save two different language versions of a custom field. The title field i different depending on the language I choose, but the text-area field {html_section} I added does not. (I have tried to edit it several times.)
A channel I created earlier {test} works fine.

Perhaps a related issue:
To solve the problem I tried using the {switch_language_url} instead of the {translated_url}. But that led me to an “page not found” error because the url included the “index.php” segment twice (like this “index.php/en/index.php/en/Home/index-new”).

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Can you share more information about your Publisher settings? Is that field or channel set to be ignored? What are your fallback settings? This seems like a config issue or something wrong in your templates or with the data itself.

Please take some time to try to replicate this on demo.boldminded.com. If you can’t replicate it there, then it indicates that it’s simething specific to your environment.

Let’s not worry about the url issue right now and focus on the first issue. It’s probably not related and should be a separate ticket.

I looked through all the settings but don’t see anything that could be an issue. Ignores are not enabled, and nothing in that panel is checked. Fallback for both CP and FE are on.

These are the channel:entry tags on the page. Publisher works on the second one (test) but not on the first (individually_coded_entries):

{exp:channel:entries channel="individually_coded_entries" limit="10"}
 {html_section}
{/exp:channel:entries}

{exp:channel:entries channel="test" limit="10"}
 <h2>{title}</h2>
 {body}
{/exp:channel:entries}

P.S. I changed {switch_language_url} back to {translated_url}

Did you login to http://demo.boldminded.com to try to replicate the issue there?

It should be fixed now. I had to re-save the “HTML section” field. It looks like Publisher didn’t make a database update that it should have made when it was installed. If you’re having other issues like this just go back to Edit Field and re-save the field settings. I’ll look into why the database update is failing on install.
