    I appreciate this makes sense if there’s data already, but here’s my situation.

    In v1 I had a custom field called ‘facebook’.

    This is the name for a default field in v2.

    This leaves me needing to adjust a lot of things!

    I guess you are referring to the “Field key” for the Facebook default field?

    Hi Nick,

    If you can explain the problems you are having i can suggest the best solution.

    We use the “facebook” field for more than just a link, we plan to use it for other things in the future and in other addons.

    In v1 I had a custom field called ‘facebook’ and ‘website’.
    These are the names for default fields in v2.

    I can neither edit the existing field name, nor the new field name.

    This means it is incredibly difficult for me to take advantage of the new features.

    ok, there are a few ways to get around it, how many listings do you have? It might just be best to do a bulk edit via CSV?
    What setup do you want to end up with?

    Yeah I think CSV might be best / quickest / easiest. Thanks.
