Fabricio Guerrero	Thursday 31 March 2005 6:39:17 am i've modified the user class. it now has over 80fields and still need to add at least 30more but ezPublish is limitng the number of fields i can view/use. eZ permits me to create as many fields as i need but it doesnt list them all.. it'll stay at 50something.. is there a way to eliminate or modify the fields limit in the user class? http://www.solobromasychistes.com <<Joomla Site :P http://www.recipesforhealthyfood.com/ <<Drupal Site :P http://www.ezforge.com/ <<future ezCommunity, Articles, forums and more...

My guess is that there is a problem in your template or that there is a bug in your publish version (which version are you using). That said, I would strongly reccomend you to review the way you structure your data. More than 100 fields in a class is not a good idea in general not only because editing will be hard but because of performance issues. Maybe you can restructure your data into either specialized datatypes or by using related objects.
