Hi dare,

Welcome to the SEBLOD forums.

This sometimes happens if there are multiple browser windows open.

Have you tried different browsers, does this also happen with other browsers?  It might be a cache issue, so you can try to clean the cache. 

thanks,

Randy

Hi dare,

Have you verified the server settings?  Are you logging in as Super Administrator?

In your app folder, is it turned On?   Have you set any permissions on the folder?

Before you add fields, have you saved your Content Type, and does the Content Type get saved? 
What fields are your trying to add to your content type?

Have you tried to upload your app from your local machine?

thanks,

Randy

Hi dare,

Can you try to reinstall SEBLOD using a different method than you did before? Perhaps trying from a directory or from a link?


thanks,

Randy

This sound like a basic php.ini settings problem - your max_input_vars setting is too low and since seblod form does not save. Seblod requires it to be set to at least 4000, you can verify this in Sytem information->PHP Information tab.

Hello. unfortunately i am on a shared server there was no php.ini folder or file or tab so i had to do the editing myself.

 I have done it but its not working. this is what i did.
under file manager, i created a file callled php.ini file under public_html folder. then i inserted max_input_vars = 4000; in the php.ini file and save it. then i went to .htaccess to edit and inserted ''suPHP_ConfigPath /home/ateradte/public_html/php.ini'' without the quotes and then saved.
is this the right procedure? because its not working. thanks for your anticipated response.

Hi dare,

Usually you should not need to create a php.ini file since it should already exist somewhere on your server.  Depending on your host, you might have to add your variables to the .htaccess file.

Check your host's FAQ or ask them how you can update the variables, php version etc...

thanks,

Randy
