Collection has to be re-saved after a field has been deleted

Stephen 28 Mar 2014 16:18 problem, pending

Hi Low,

I've noticed that when a custom field that is used in a collection is deleted, you get the following error when you try and rebuild the index for that collection:

An error occurred rebuilding the index. Try again later.


The fix is to go into the collection and press Save, then go back and rebuild the index successfully.

This isn't an issue for me as I can see how deleting the field might cause issues, but I thought I'd flag it up in case it's something you want to look at, or give a different error message for.

I'm using EE 2.7.3 and Low Search 3.1.2.

Thanks,

Stephen

    True. I'll check and see if there are suitable hooks to be used when deleting a field.
