Error: updated 2.7.31.2 -> 3.1.4 . Edit Pods -> all fields missing

    I have a (Custom Post Type) Pods with couple text fields (Plain Paragraph Text). All was working for many years without problem.

    Then recently updated to version 3.1.4 and content editing page is no longer shows additional text, image, select box fields. It only shows title and slug. All other fields are not visible and not editable. They are only viewable in front as it was working previously.

    Editing content belonging to custom Pods is similar to editing regular Post or Page but with additional fields. Which is not working.

    To fix problem I started to roll back Pods version one by one. And find that content editing works with version 2.7.31.2.

    In that version navigating to “Pods Admin” -> “Edit pods” page shows additional columns “Storage type”: “Meta”, “Number of fields”: “14” . On other versions I do not see those columns.

    All later versions 2.8.x, 2.9.x, 3.0.x, 3.1.x are not working. Am I missing something here? Why all latest versions are not working and nobody reporting or complaining about it? Probably there is some new feature that should be switched on which I am not aware of.

    Additionally while in version 3.1.4 and 2.9.19.2 tried suggested repair feature located in Admin > Settings > Tools (Repair Pod, Groups, and Fields) as mentioned in this thread: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/updating-2-7-31-latest-version-edit-pod-has-missing-fields/ . It didn’t help. nothing repaired and custom fields didn’t appear.

    Can you please help me understand and fix this issue so I can use latest version of Pods and be able to edit content created with custom pods.

    I found reason why my custom fields stopped showing in edit page.

    It was disabled by mistake in “Pods admin” -> “Settings” page. Core : “Allow Pods to create and manage custom fields on any content type created/extended through Pods” option value should be “Enable creating custom fields with Pods” to view and edit custom fields.

    Posted it here in order to help other having similar issued by mistake.

    Regards.
