Conflict between Fields - Media JCE and custom fields type media

[web-tiki]

Hello.

I have been facing an issue with the last update of JCE (2.6.27) I have several websites that use JCE editor and custom fields type media. I have updated them to the lastest version of JCE (and joomla 3.8.6) and there was an issue on all of them: All the custom fields type media disapeared from the backend article editing panel. I also can't create new custom fields type media. No problem on the frontend or in the database, the data is still there and is displayed as intended but I can't edit/delete/create custom fields type media.

I quick fixed the issue by deleting the Fields - Media JCE plugin and got my fields back.

I have had this issue on 5 diferent websites. They run on php 7.1 and are now all on the latest joomla version 3.8.6 and JCE 2.6.27.

If you need mlore info, I'll be happy to give it to you.

Hello again @ryandemmer . I am back because it seems I spoke to quick in my last comment and the last update didn't solve the conflict. These are the steps to recreate the issue :

1. Install joomla 3.8.6
2. create a custom field type media
3. create an article with that custom field and enter a value
4. install JCE editor 2.6.28
5. try to edit the custom field in the backend

The value of the field displays on the frontend but the field disapears from the backend and can't be edited.
