 * Hello !
 * I have set up cft template 0 and I can see all the custom fields right on a write
   post-page.
 * When I put [cft format=0] or [cft] to normal WP-content field, and hit “update
   page”, content field changes to just display text: “array”. Same “array”-text
   is also visible when I see the post in a browser.
 * Why is that ?
 * My fields:
    [Description] type = textarea rows = 8 cols = 60 tinyMCE = false 
   mediaButton = false output = true
 * [Content]
    type = textarea rows = 8 cols = 60 tinyMCE = false mediaButton = false
   output = true
 * [Recommended]
    type = textfield size = 35 label = Recommended lessons, type in
   post ID’s (separate with ,) output = true
 * [Required]
    type = textfield size = 35 label = Required lessons, type in post
   ID’s (separate with ,) output = true
 * This is what I have in [cft]-template 0:
 * <div>
    [Description] [Content] [Recommended] [Required] </div>
 * I’m using WP2.7.1 and have disabled all the other plugins.
 * Jukka

 * What I already found out, was that after changing [Content]- field’s name to 
   something else, things started working normally again.
 * Could it be that there is similar fieldname in wp’s database that interferes ??

 * `content` and `post_title` is used for the WordPress core name fields. The custom
   field template plugin uses custom field keys as the name fields. So they overlap
   the core fields. I may change the name fields into the unique names in the future
   release, but please be careful to use `content` and `post_title` as the custom
   field keys. Thanks.
