Fields not showing up in list view

[seba...@gianninicreative.com]

If you take a look at the image below, you will see mostly empty fields. But Job Number and Original Filename have entries for every single file in the system. The data shows up when editing the resources, when viewing them, etc. It just doesn't show up here. I can force the Job Number field to become visible by editing the resource, changing the number, then changing it back and saving. But nothing else seems to work. I tried running tools/reindex.php with no luck. Any ideas what would cause this?

Thanks,

I have the same issue. I only see two fields. The rest are always blank in list view??

try to re-index your metadata fields, We have a option to reindex each metadata fields,

Admin -> Manage Metadata Fields -> Your Field -> Edit -> index this field (there is a option reindex)

Thanks, Malaikkannan.

That was the first thing I tried, and I just tried it again. No dice. They only start to populate if I go into each resource, change the field contents, and then change it back.

I also tried updating to the latest 9.0 release, still not working.

# List Display Fields: array of fields to display on the list view

$list_display_fields=array(8,3,12);

You can change your list view metadata fields using that config variable, So try with some new fields instead of existing fields and check its showing up or not.

That’s the variable I’m using, all of my fields are new, custom ones. The default ones work fine.

Found something digging around in the MYSQL tables:

The affected files show blank fields in list view but display the data correctly when viewing the resource with view.php.

Turns out that the affected files have the data stored inside resource_data but NOT inside resource. Changing and resaving the value writes it into BOTH resource_data and resource.

More clues:

This seems to affect files that were populated before the columns were set to display in list view. After turning on the columns in list view, any newly uploaded files populate the fields as expected. Older files continue to stay blank. I confirmed this by hiding one column (removing it from $list_display_fields=array()) Any uploaded files have NULL for that field inside the resource table. If I add the field back into $list_display_fields=array() and upload a new file, the resource table will include the data for that particular field.

Now, how do I populate the resource table with the correct data after making changes to $list_display_fields=array()?

Did you ever find a solution to this? I am having the same issue. Thanks.

I ran across this today also. Wondering if someone has a fix? Version 9.6

Did anyone find a fix for this issue? I'm running V10.4 and seeing the same issue.
