Noticed this first when I was using 6.x-1.1. Also saw in 6x-2 betas and now in the -2 dev.
I don't know if this is a bug or some other module causing problems.

Short version: I make a cck field in the Advertisement content type
On create, fill out all fields including the cck one. Save.
All values save except the cck field.
Edit, enter value again. Save. It sticks.

I think I saw something somewhere about a Delegator module conflict. But not using Delegator.
Anybody else seeing this or have clues?
Pretty easy work around but it's bothersome.

Are you using the ad_channel and/or ad_weight_probability modules? If so, does the problem go away if you disable both modules?

I'm doing some preliminary development work with the ad module now to make it better integrate it with CCK, but the code likely will end up in the upcoming 3.x development branch which I don't expect to stabilize any time soon -- the 2.x branch is still stabilizing.

I am using ad weight. Problem remains when both are disabled.
(This only for cck fields in the Ad content type, whereas before I was seeing this problem w/cck fields in all my content types.)

I believe this is due to the (mis)design of the ad module and how it create hybrid node types. I intend to fix this in a 3.x branch, but that's still on the horizon. I do not have a fix for you at this time.

Sounds good. It's not urgent anyway, but I'll look fwd to 3.0

I am interested in this. What is the status of this issue?

I have partial solution: Set weight for Ad module in {system} table doing the trick - Ad module and Content with same weight are orderd Ad before Content. I set weight for Ad to 5 and new node type ad now show all CCK fields in edit with filled values.

Drupal 6 is EOL and no longer supported. Closing this as outdated for that reason. Thanks for your contribution!
