Unable to load requested field type file: ft.low_reorder.php

e-man 1 Oct 2014 13:33 problem, complete

(hate to do this on your birthday mate!)

I recently updated an EE 2.4 install to 2.8.1 (+ all add-ons) and now whenever I try to access a channel field I'm getting the following error:

An Error Was Encountered
Unable to load requested field type file: ft.low_reorder.php.
Confirm the fieldtype file is located in the expressionengine/third_party/ directory

The reorder module itself is working just fine.
Any ideas?

The exp_fieldtypes table still holds:
fieldtype_id name version settings has_global_settings
27 low_reorder 2.2.1 YTowOnt9 n

   Probably a left-over from an old LR version, as it doesn't use a fieldtype anymore. Try removing that record from the exp_fieldtypes table and run this query too:
   

   UPDATE exp_channel_fields SET field_type = 'text' WHERE field_type = 'low_reorder';
    

   Back up things first, of course.

   forgot to mention that I updated Low Reorder from 2.2.1 to 2.2.3
   The 2.2.1 folder still has the ft.low_reorder.php file, the 2.2.3 folder doesn't.

   All good here, back to the cake and champagne :) Happy birthday again!

   Great! For the record, you can safely remove the ft.low_reorder.php file if it's there. :)
