[Vtigercrm-developers] vtlib changes in 5.4.0???

[Alan Lord (News)]

Hmm,

If I remove the $field->table = '' specifier then it works correctly. I 
can see the picklist contents, but, of course, the new fields are added 
to the vtiger_accounts table.

I'm not sure if this is such a big deal or not? Would this cause any 
potential issues for future migrations of vtiger?

Cheers

Al
