When I update field types, styles, etc. for a DF field, the prior selection does not seem to be "deleted". The most troubling are applying styles as they seem to be "added" vs. replaced. Is there a way / method to clear the attributes for a particular field and start from scratch vs. deleting the field? (DNN 4.94 / DF 2.7) Julie

Julie, Hi. Can you maybe attach a screenshot that demonstrates what you are referring to. Is it when you change the class in the stylesheet file or on the field itself? There is one issue for JavaScript files and the custom Stylesheet File to be aware of. When you click and update either the stylesheet file/css file and exist the settings you MUST click refresh on the page before the updated filed will actually take affect. Seems weird, but if you changed a CSS class in the stylesheet file and don't see any updates, make sure to hit refresh after you exist the settings. -Chad

Hi Chad. We were able to resolve the spacing issue ... it seems that every time a field is edited, I need to remove all html from the field header / footer ... not sure why this does not "save" from field edit to field edit ... Julie

Hi Julie, This has been previously reported as an issue with the FCK editor and DNN 4.9. Check out this thread and note Chad's 11/24 post. Also, can you please go to Host, Module Definition and let me know your exact module version? I do believe this was fixed in DF 2.7.5 so I want to make sure that you have that, at least, if you havent upgraded to 3.0 yet. Thanks! Candace
