Product Custom fields Default value not working

-- url of the page with the problem -- : fitin.guywalderonline.com/index.php/he
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.4
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6

Hello,

I think I might have discovered a bug.
I've created two custom fields for the product table.
The first one has the "Back-end Form" enabled and when I enter data to it in the product page it shows up alright.
The second one has no 'Back-end Form" but I've inserted "Default value" to it. This one won't show up on the fron end. When I enable the 'Back-end Form" and entered text to the field in the product edit screen it showed up fine.
Both are set a WYSIWYG for field type.

I've added them both to my page by editing the show_default.php file of product and added the following code:

<span id="hikashop_product_father_details" class="hikashop_product_father_details">
	<?php echo $this->element->father_product_details; ?></span>
<span id="hikashop_product_sizes_table" class="hikashop_product_sizes_table">
	<?php echo $this->element->sizes_table; ?></span>

Hi,

Please give us a screenshot of the custom field settings.
An update can be a good thing

Hi Xavier,

Thank you for the quick replay.
I've attached two screenshots:
1. Working father_product_details - This is the working field that gets it's info in the product page.
2. Not working sizes_table - This is the field that has only default value and is not working.

I will try to update the site locally. Do you think it's a bug that was fixed in the next version?Thank you again,

Guy.

Hi Jerome,

Read all about it and managed to more or less solve the issue.
It was not related to the "input filtering" as the text was not filtered, it was just absent.
I then noticed that the filed got added to products I've created but only to the products that were creates after the creation of the custom field.
I eventually hard coded the item I wished to add in show_default.php file. That did the trick

Thank you for your kind help.
