Question

We have just upgraded to version 4.1.1 from verion 4.0.5.

The Hidden, Mandatory form fields (HM) are now displaying in the Form section at the bottom of the topic. Optional Hidden fields are still hidden.

Has something changed with the Form attributes?

Quick fix: use H,M

Yes, this does fix it for any new or re-saved topics, but it doesn't help you if you have many topics that were previously created with the appropriate form.

In fact, as I stated in the bug comments, previous topics show ALL hidden fields, regardless of whether they are Mandatory or not!

According to the Bug comments, this has been traced to a particular SVN change that is being reversed out.

Please upgrade to the latest TWiki Release 4.1.2, this issue is fixed.
