uSync Dropdown DataType Issue #277

Open arturwpeniche opened 3 years ago

arturwpeniche commented 3 years ago

I have 2 sites, dev branch and production. On my dev branch I'm using a couple of archetype DataType which are able to be configured by a simple dropdown with couple color names (like Green, Blue etc). I have like 300 published nodes which uses that datatype (required field). After I've exported "Full Export" in uSync dashboard and then copy/pasted the whole uSync folder to my production branch and clicked "Full Import". After import complete I check my nodes. All fields are there except that dropdown.

There are some old issues on the our.umbraco.com website stating the same issue, but they seem to been fixed. I've posted there this issue, but has been 6 days, and the topic still is on manual approval.

Any idea what must be causing this issue?

I am using (uSync.BackOffice 4.0.16.0) (uSync.Core 6.0.15.0) [uSync.Content: 4.1.9.1]

Umbraco version 7.15.4

Thank you in advance.

Best regards, Artur

Hi,

Has the datatype itself got any values in it (so in the developer section). ? and what type of drop down is it (there are a couple i think DropDown Flexible is the latest) ?

the values in dropdowns on Umbraco 7 have been a real issue over time, depending on your type of dropdown and the version of Umbraco that the dropdown was created the values are sometimes stored as the ID against the content and other times the actual value. The last piece of work we did on v7 for this is here #185 - but if its comeback it might be something else.

Hi! Thanks for the swift response.

Yest it does, and you're right, the type of drop down is Umbraco.DropDown.Flexible.

The current umbraco version is Umbraco version 7.15.0, althought I have no idea what was it when they were created.

What approach can I take?
