They show up for me, CustomField.{Foo} at the bottom of the Add Column
box.
I tried putting the Results.tsv file from v3.6.6 and put that into
v4.0.10, but it made no
difference.
That was in my /opt/rt4/share/html/Search directory.
I assume that there is no compile needed to do such a change, but I know
nothing about
changing the software.
My experience is limited to installing and upgrading RT.
I suggest you revert this change as quickly as possible.
Next time someone clears your mason cache, that code will start
running and explode.

[rt-users] Spreadsheets/Export missing Custom Fields
I have just upgraded from RT version 3.6.6 to version 4.0.10. One function the users utilize frequently is to Search for Tickets with specific criteria and then Export them to a Spreadsheet. In the old version they would get the ticket including all the custom fields. After the upgrade to 4.0.10, we now get only the fields that are showing on the Search Results windows. Any ideas?

I believe the export will not show the CFs unless they are selected for *display* at the bottom of the search form. -- RT training in Amsterdam, March 20-21: http://bestpractical.com/services/training.html Help improve RT by taking our user survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N23JW9T

This change in 4.0 fixed a longstanding bug in previous RT versions which would ignore your carefully constructed display format and just spew everything into your spreadsheet. In fact, there was a popular extension that implemented the current 4.0 behavior. As noted by Jeff Blaine, you'll want to have your users update the Display Format of their searches and save them. It's certainly possible to create a second export that brings back the old behavior if you're so inclined.. -kevin pgpr7KGAHgy6V.pgp Description: PGP signature -- RT training in Amsterdam, March 20-21: http://bestpractical.com/services/training.html Help improve RT by taking our user survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N23JW9T
