Hi guys,

I have the following situation:

Solution 8.8.0.1. I have defined a bunch of User custom fields and I am using them to store various information on the fields specifically for User groups (that's because User groups don't have custom fields). everything is working fine, I can store the values and I can read them just fine.

I have then upgraded to 8.8.1.34. The behavior has changed. If I try to store values on those fields, everytime I save the user group, the values are gone.

I understand this is not standard functionality (to use user custom fields for storing values for User groups) but I need to know if this was done on purpose (meaning there's no way back) or it's a bug caused by other changes (meaning it will be fixed).

Thank you,

Adrian

Update. 

I have tried assigning a User Item type to store custom values.

The ItemType is assigned to the group, but the values are not. Basically, it does not create a new line in the ItemType_UserGroupItemType not it does store an ItemID in the AccessUserItemId.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Adrian
