Another Bug for WordPress 2.5 – Custom Field

Many bloggers have reported the bugs for the recent released wordpress 2.5, but I cannot remember what they are. After I upgraded wordpress 2.5 for my gallery site named WordPress Theme Store (WPThemeStore.com), I have faced some problem after added the custom field.

Look at the screenshoot below, when I create new post for my gallery post, I have added two custom fields for the key of “url” and “Thumbnail”, after put in the title and category of this post, and then I publish it.

Do you know what happen after the post is published? I found that my thumbnail for my gallery post didn’t showed, then I try to look back the post and check back all the data that I have inserted for this post.

I found that one of the custom fields is disappeared as per screenshoot below, that’s custom field for “Thumbnail” key is disappeared, no wonder the thumbnail cannot showed.

At first, I don’t believe this is a bug, within giving up then I try another time for the new posting. Yes, the same problem is occurred.

Do you face the same problem like me? I don’t know, but I will try to contact wordpress for this bug.

    I was having this exact same problem with custom fields. Very annoying. Finally, I found a workaround for this bug: save the post before adding any custom fields. Worked for me.

    I personally think that this is still a bug. If want to save the post before adding the custom field, seemingly we do double works and it is very time consuming if we have many posts want to publish. If like that, i prefer the previous version which we do need to do that.

    I’ve had the same problem, with a premium theme that cost money too :(

    Let me know if you find out how to get it sorted. :)

    Just hoping wordpress can fix this bug as soon as possible. Right now, what I can do is add one custom field, publish it. Again, add another ones, publish it again. There is no other solution now.
