'link' type in custom fields does not work
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

I'm unable to define a custom field with a type of 'link'.

This works:
{"mycompany:motto": {"name": "Project Motto", "type": "text"}}

This doesn't:
{"mycompany:motto": {"name": "Project Motto", "type": "link"}}

According to the docs, it should work.
I can save the config entry, but then it doesnt appear in projects.fields

What version of Phabricator are you running? You can find it in the header in ConfigAll Settings. It should look like this:

I can't reproduce this offhand. Where are you looking, exactly?

Your version of Phabricator is from April 16th. The "link" field type was added about a week later, on April 24th. See D12543.
