Thanks Jamie,
Good to know it wasn't because I stuffed up or there was a proper fix
that is practicable to apply.
I have just spun through the after find code from expandable like you
said,
foreach ($content['Article'] as $i => $item) {
foreach ($item['ContentField'] as $field) {
$content['Article'][$i][$field['key']] = $field['val'];
}
}
in my controller. worse things happen at sea,
Thanks. Will.
