The damnedest thing has happened on one of my components, this may be new, or just happened.

The default value of any string type field is '1'

I have literally just built a comoonent, and this default value is certainly not being honoured by the form, but looks odd in the builder. It can be deleted and stays deleted

Correction, it cannot be deleted. Not done a new build yet to see if it sticks

OK, its gone now

That was weird

Every single string / text field in my tables had picked up a default value of '1'

I didn't changed anything there these days because I only touched the javascript builder, and nothing from the PHP generator.
So it is very improbable.

I have now a similar problem, entering gives an empty string. Not NULL.
Before it was NULL I believe?

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
