The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.I've got a strange situation.
In developing my site, I'm making a great use of Panels (because it is so cool!).
One of the things I've been using it for is to 'theme' the node add and edit pages.
When developing my first set of add/edit pages/panels, I had access to most of the fields that I'd created for the my content types.
Now, however, I can't access these anymore. Where have they gone?!
For example, on by 'blog' content type I have fields in regions as per the attached image. This includes things like Content Type Description, taxonomy fields, etc.
However, for a recently created page variant for another content type, I cannot access any of the specific fields. The only way to include them is to use the General Form.
I have attached an exports of one of the page variants, which were created when the fields were available.
Where have the fields gone?
My Apache error_log shows:
[Sun Aug 07 20:17:17 2011] [warn] [client 90.192.34.68] (70014)End of file found: mod_fcgid: can't get data from http client, referer: http://www.mydomain.here/admin/structure/pages/nojs/operation/node_edit/handlers/node_edit_panel_context_10/content
Might this be the problem?

elly commented+1 - Just noticed this. In Drupal 6 I used to use the node edit override to make a more user friendly node edit form by moving terms and other special fields into a lefthand panels layout column. Now the only panes I see available are the general form and the default node edit elements (revisions, menu, etc). How do we get fields back in the 'form' category of panes available in to the node edit override layout d7?

elly commentedps. I am using 7.x-3.0-alpha3, not the dev version.
Comment #3
populist commentedI believe this has been fixed in the latest -dev release of Panels. I tested this on the latest ctools + panels and was able to add specific fields.
Comment #4
elly commentedJust checked this - updating to the latest dev of Panels didn't return my fields as pane options to the node edit override form, but updating to the latest dev of CTools did. :)

merlinofchaos commentedWell then, I guess this is fixed.
Comment #7
Cyclodex commentedI am not sure if this is really related to the panels, because I have a similiar issue, now it happens the 2nd time my taxonomy term were just "cleaned".
They have no data in the fields anymore and the error logs shows this message:
[Fri May 04 09:53:30 2012] [warn] [client 127.0.0.1] (70014)End of file found: mod_fcgid: can't get data from http client, referer: https://www.espazium.ch/tec21/node/4746/edit?render=overlayThe way I fix this issue, is just to clear cache, strange he ?!
So, could this be something related to cache or is it a apache / server Problem?
Looks like I should create a new issue, or move this to an other place ? but where ? What do you mean ? Any help / suggestions for this?

Letharion commented@Cyclodex: I have never seen that error before, but my interpretation is that something is wrong on the file level on your site, which is beyond Panels.
You will need to figure out what the problem is on the server level first, and then if the problem persists, preferably open a new issue.
