Custom Field Name List Not Updating

Gravity Support Forums » Plugin Support » Gravity Forms

    I am new to Gravity Forms and am having trouble with the "Post Custom Field" option on two different sites. When I installed it on my first site, I was happy to see that the "Custom Field Name" drop-down list contained custom fields I had created using the "More Fields" plugin. However, it did not seem to update the list as I added and deleted custom fields.

    I am now playing around on a dev site so that I can learn how to use the plugin better. At the moment, none of my custom fields created using the "More Fields" plugin are appearing in the "Custom Field Name" drop-down.

    How can I refresh the list?

    Thank you for your assistance.

    Hi cbrady,

    This list is generated from custom fields that exist on posts. The custom fields created by the More Fields plugin (which I love!) are not actually "registered" custom fields until a post is using one of them.
