Saved Element Plugin reverts to text area or field type plugins

[Silenuviel]

Hi Everyone,

I'm relatively new to Fabrik, and am trying to play with it to see if this extension is right for my purposes.
So far I've run into an issue with the Element's Plugin. For example I select "check boxes" type of plugin for a particular aspect of the Form. After Saving it (same day checked and "check boxes" was still "check boxes") for at least till I log off, eventually I find that it reverted back to "Text Area" plugin. I've tried to search for this problem but couldn't find another thread like this.

Please let me know if you know what on earth is happening, or know where I can get an answer.

Thanks All!

Never heard of something similar.
Are you running the latest version (3.1rc1 since today)?

 

[Silenuviel]

I think I have 3.1b Where do I go to update? I tried reading the Github instructions but it was very confusing..(never used Github before)

Download the latest 3.1rc1 from download area, install.

I'm looking at https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/tree/joomla3, righthand column under "clone to desktop" is that the download button I want to click? it doesnt specify '3.1rc1' version...

You can do this.
But at the moment you don't need to do a GitHub update.
Fabrik3.1rc1 in http://fabrikar.com/download
is the most recent one.
You can download + install or use Joomla updater.

Ah ok, thanks for linking me. We'll see if I continue to spot the not saving issue.
