Description
I updated from 5.x-1.0 to 5.x-1.5, in order to input nonalpha characters.
After the update, I now have ALL fields showing, regardless of the settings in the content type for whether to display the field or not. Also, there are no labels for each of the fields. I've tried resaving each field in each content type, with no luck. I've tried installing 5.x-1.5 into another Drupal site that didn't have cck_fullname installed, and it works perfectly. So i'm assuming that it's possibly related to the update process?
I've attached screen shots of what it looked like in 5.x-1.0 and after the update in version 5.x-1.5.
Let me know of any more info you need.
thanks

On this page: http://drupal.org/project/cck_fullname, what does the second paragraph say? Did you do that?
I didn't think so. Since you're starting from an even older version, that would apply to you as well.

Yes, I did resave all field definitions. I also ran the update.php script to update the database tables too.

OK then, you'll have to examine your tables that go along with the screen shots you've provided so I can see what fields you have and see if we can't figure out why the data isn't showing. Sorry to be short with you last time. I see in your original post that you actually did the re-save process. I must have read your post after a particularly annoying issue post.
Anyway, one other thing to try (and I don't know why or if it would make a difference) is to upgrade from 1.0 to 1.2, then from 1.2 to 1.5. I don't think I took anything out from the upgrade process, but maybe I did on accident.

I have one table in my database that seems to be where it's storing all the fullname data...
it's called content_field_full_name. the table contains the following fields:
vid
nid
field_full_name_first
field_full_name_middle
field_full_name_last
field_full_name_prefix
field_full_name_suffix
field_full_name_last_preferred
field_full_name_first_preferred
field_full_name_middle_preferred
field_full_name_prefix_preferred
field_full_name_suffix_preferred
in one of the content types that contains a fullname field.. it contains other cckfields, but no mention of a fullname field, so i'm guessing all the data is stored in that table I mentioned above.
I'll try the 1.0 to 1.2 then 1.2 to 1.5 as well and see what that comes up with

what are the values that this module has in the variables table? All entries will be prefixed with the module name.

It could be that you haven't unticked the field in the Prefered section of the content types Full Name field's settings.
