I am using QGIS v2.0.1 and am also using PostgreSQL/PostGIS as well as 
GeoServer.  In my PostgreSQL, I have a feature table that contains an ID, 
title, and point geometry.  I have published the table as a WMS/WFS via 
GeoServer.  In QGIS, I added a layer to the feature table with a direct 
connection through the "Add PostGIS Layer" and I also added another layer to 
the feature table through the "AddWFS Layer" (which goes through GeoServer).  
When I click on the "Identify Features" icon and click on a feature that is on 
my PostGIS direct connection layer, I can see the ID and Title for that feature 
in the popup window.  If however, I click on the same feature but is in the WFS 
layer, I don't get that other metadata. I only see the coordinates for the 
feature.  

I am new to QGIS and these types of geospatial tools so I am not sure what the 
difference is.  Am I not seeing the other metadata fields when working with the 
WFS via GeoServer because you don't get the other field data with that service? 
 or is it an indicated that I am not properly registering or accessing the 
layer over WFS? or ???

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated - Peter
