I have a SP 2013 site with a blog sub site. I was asked for a way to show a different author than the created by so that a blog posting could be entered for another person. So I created a list on the parent site of employees, created a site column and added a lookup field on the Posts list on the blog subsite. I then modified the web part, changed the current view to include the new field and added some JScript to replace the author field with the new lookup field on the main blog page. Works great. I was then asked to put the same fix on the pages that display when you select a category or simply drill down on a blog to the details page (Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=2).
This is where things went south. I did the exact same thing on the other 2 pages but the post that should display doesn't. Found this post
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgenerallegacy/thread/c034353c-1789-4eb9-b1e5-b242f6cbafdc
which sounds similar and suggests updating the filter but this makes no difference.
I then created a new SP 2013 test site (so everything is out of the box), added a Blog sub-site and went to edit page on the details page, modified the web part, clicked on Edit current view and selected OK - no changes made. And the post disappears. So it has nothing to do with me adding the new field or my jscript. Interestingly enough, if I put a specific ID number in the field it works (ie I replaced the [ID] parameter with 2 and it works)
Anybody got any idea what's going on with this?
Thanks.
