Hey,

I have a node that I am using rules to set a title of. Within this node I have a taxonomy field, a node reference field, a cck text field, a date field, and a cck location field. When saving the node, all fields save BUT the CCK text field. When the rule is active and setting the title, that field does not save. When the rule is deactivated, the field saves just fine, thus I know it's a rules issue.

Is there any reason why this text wouldn't be saving? I did a search in the queue and I couldn't find anything on it. Helping me narrow this problem down would save me a heck of a lot of time!

Thanks!

Is this related to your OG problem that was solved? #610260: Using rules to set node title prevents og group submission

Yes, it was. BTW, Kudos to your memory! But the patch applied, if you recall, and the group submission worked, and I rejoiced, only to find that now a CCK status field wouldn't save either, much to my frustration. Now, there is a possibility it could be something else unrelated to rules causing a conflict, my first approach was to post the ticket, see if anyone else had experienced the problem, and if not, then go back into the system to test for conflicts, reporting back here.

Okay, well, I don't know what the original problem is, but I deleted the cck field and replaced it with another and now it submits fine. So we can claim with pretty decent certainty that this isn't a rules problem...it might have been to some junk code in my module invoking form_alter(). I have too many loose ends to accurately predict what goes haywire all the time, but I figured rules could have been the culprit. It seems that it isn't, and my problem is solved.

Special thanks @Amitaibu for connecting dots and taking the time to help me out - it is always appreciated!
