You can install the file attached to that post via the joomfish interface it order to have joomfish translate the fields. #### *This attachment is hidden for guests.

In the file translation (or normal?) of the view category, there is a typo for that: kaywords instead of keywords. Because of that, the publish field value is not correctly loaded. You can change it if you want, but it's not really that useful, especially for that field.
