Multiple Select List issue

[lorraineconard]

I seem to have an issue with any custom field that allows multiple items to be selected (e.g. a multiple select list).

I created an extra field "Multiple Select List" to display amenities for rental houses. When the home is first entered into HP, I select the amenities (ctrl click to select multiple items) and save the property.

The first time I open the property again (e.g. to change a price) the amenities are still selected correctly.

The second time I open the property to change a price only the first item on the amenities list is selected and the other previously selected items are no longer highlighted.

I can reselect the amenities and hit save, which corrects the listing, but next time I open the property the selection is wrong again.

I also tested it with the Checkbox option and it seems to do the same thing (it unchecks all but the first option on second open).

Any ideas or suggestions on a fix would be appreciated! (or a nudge to an older post if this has been addressed.

Thanks!

I couldn't replicate this bug in HP 1.0 Beta 4. Are you running the this latest version?

If you're still having issue with this, please open a thread in Priority Support forum with temp. access to your site's back-end. I'll take a closer look at this.

Many thanks to Mosets for a fast resolution (even though I had managed to create the issue myself)...

The issue lies in the line breaks you use right after the pipe (|) character, causing HP not recognizing your selection properly.

I should have entered them as:
Fireplace|Hot Tub|High Speed Internet|etc...

Thanks again!
