I just used Drupal to create a website for all the recipes I've collected over the years. I wanted a way to be able to access them anywhere (like, on my phone while at the grocery store) and share them with friends, as well as give them all sorts of tags so I could instantly see all the "dessert" recipes or "Christmas" recipes, etc. Yes, I'm a big dork.
Anyway, I used CCK to create 2 custom fields: "Source," and "Note from Jaclyn." After getting the site just how I wanted it, I began checking out the themes and found one I liked called "Chocotheme." However, when I run the theme, these 2 custom fields show up blank the nodes. As an example, here's an image of a node in Garland (cropped): http://www.jmckewan.com/recipegarland.jpg
Now here's the same node in ChocoTheme (also cropped): http://www.jmckewan.com/recipechoco.jpg
The custom fields show up blank, with a dotted line around them. I posted a message on ChocoThemes "issues" page but haven't heard anything (admittedly, it hasn't been that long). I've checked the settings for this theme, as well as the global settings, as well as the settings on these 2 fields, but I can't figure out what could be causing it. I know I could just pick another theme, but if there was a relatively simple fix for this, I'd really like to use ChocoTheme. Thanks!

Do you have a custom
Do you have a custom node.tpl.php in the Garland theme folder? Or did you add anything to Garland's template.php file?
No, I have not customized or
No, I have not customized or added anything to any of the themes.
What happens if you try
What happens if you try another theme? It's possible it's a problem with the theme you are trying.
I'm sure that the theme is the problem
I'm sure that the theme is the problem - all other themes show the fields, as with the garland example above. However, since I haven't heard anything after submitting an issue for the theme, I posted my question here. I was just wondering if someone knew of a way to fix this - maybe something in the theme's code that I could edit, or some setting that could be changed.
