When I add custom fields under categories, eg Personal information etc, wheter I or some other user tries to edit those fields and click Save in his "My account" section, although it appears and prints to screen that changes were saved, when consulting user listing / database / edit section fields weren't updated!

i am using version 4.7.0

However, if the field is put required on registration, value entered there remains saved though.

What's the catch, if it isn't a bug?

It is Drupal problem, not profile_cvs.module

nobody else seems to have this problem, downgrading.

I have this same problem. Drupal 4.7.3

I think mickeybj's talking about - when he adds a new custom field to the ser 'template' so to speak, existing users can't update that new filed. Only newly registered users can be editted. I've been scouring the site for any leads on this recently, but to no avail.

Any tips would be greatly appreceated.

Some problem here with error message as a bonus

Using drupal 4.7.0 I get this when I create or edit profile feilds:

user warning: Field 'autocomplete' doesn't have a default value query: INSERT INTO profile_fields (title, name, explanation, category, type, weight, required, register, visibility, options, page) VALUES ('Home Address', 'profile_address', '', 'Contact Information', 'textfield', 0, 0, 1, 1, '', '') in C:\siteroot\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 120.

Fixed my problem. I had to add modify the autocomplete field to have a default of 0. In reading my post, I'm not sure if my problem is exactly what mickeybj had.

Putting this back to 4.7.0 unless somebody has a report that this is a problem in 7.x.
