Also cannot change the names of custom fields. Appears to save, but name remains

To delete, in src/addons/vw/vw/_core/controller/dm/fielddefinition/vw.php, find:

Code:

vw_fieldgroup

Replace with:

Code:

vw_field_group

As for the title phrases not updating, I've found the problem. They are supposed to be associated with a non-existing "VaultWiki Custom" add-on so that they are not updated during "VaultWiki" upgrades, but easily removed when VaultWiki is uninstalled. XenForo doesn't like this, and has hidden code that silently removes the "VaultWiki Custom" association. This makes the custom-field admin panel unable to modify them because they now belong to a "different add-on."

We can fix the association with a future upgrade script, but in the mean time, you will need to edit the phrases manually using XenForo's normal phrase editing tools. The phrase names are prefixed with:

Code:

vw_custom_field_

followed by the "fieldname" of the custom field.
