Enclosure Custom Fields Deleting! (2 posts)

    Recently upgraded WordPress MU to 2.8.1 and since then have had this problem (have since upgraded to the new alpha version Donncha put out with no change)

    I'll add the custom field "enclosure" for our podcast files with normal structure, but after the post is updated and I refresh the editor or go and look at the post page, the field's been deleted!

    This only happens with the field "enclosure". Other fields I've tried don't have no problem.

    I've upgraded and deactivated all plugins. I've heard that this is a conflict with the Podpress or Podcasting plugins but neither of those are or have ever been activated.

    Ideas? Kind of urgent issue here as this is a high volume site with a bunch of podcasts

    Info about this here:

    Essentially 2.8 deletes the enclosure field on an update if there's no link to the media file in the body post, and apparently this was done intentionally as a feature!
