Bug - field type of User breaks the post edit screen

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem? (Be specific enough so that someone
else can make the plugin fail for themselves. Remember: if the issue can't
be fixed if it can't be reproduced!)

If a post has a custom field of the User type associated with it then the post 
editing screen breaks. The custom field panel is empty (the expand triangle 
does nothing) and the other panels including Publish, Categories, Tabs, etc, 
are missing. Also, the Screen Options tab doesn't work.

Does the problem continue if you disable all other plugins? (Conflicts
between plugins are easily the #1 cause of errors, so it's important to
isolate the issue):

Yes.

Bug is recent as it worked prior to the 3.5 update and the corresponding BP 
update.

I have also tried deleting and recreating both the custom post type and field, 
in case it was a corruption in the CCTM database table.

Please copy and paste the system information that appears in a yellow
textarea when you click on "Report a Bug" on any CCTM admin screen (this
includes the version of the
plugin, the version of PHP, the version of MySQL, a list of other active
plugins etc.):

Before you file a bug, it's best to update to the latest version -- at this 
moment that's 0.9.6.7, so you're 7 minor versions behind (!), and it's quite 
possible that the bug is fixed already in that version.  

It's possible that this was one of the things fixed in the upcoming 0.9.7 
version -- you can download that here:

I could not reproduce this error in the latest dev version (0.9.7-dev), so I'm 
closing this.  Updating your version of the plugin should fix this for you.

It's strange as I only ever install plugins via the WP repository, I always 
keep everything up to date, and yet it hasn't offered an update for CCTM for 
ages! 

I've updated to 0.9.7 and it's still doing it I'm afraid. Looking at the 
generated HTML for the post editing page, I can see that the code stops after 
this:

<div id="categorydiv" class="postbox " >
<div class="handlediv" title="Click to toggle"><br /></div><h3 
class='hndle'><span>Categories</span></h3>
<div class="inside">

I know that's not much help if you can't replicate it, but I was hoping that it 
might help!

Cheers

Peter

I have little faith in the WP repo... so many bugs in its packaging system over 
the years.   I would try making a backup of your CCTM definitions (under the 
CCTM --> Tools menu), then delete the plugin and all of it's files and 
reinstall it (and re-import your definitions).  I can't reproduce this locally, 
so I have nothing to go on unless you can provide me with a login to the site.

FYI: "a corruption in the CCTM database table" -- the CCTM does not use any 
custom database tables.  It uses all the built-in WP stuff.
