How to change field type

Ben Murphy asked on October 3, 2019 14:56

I have a field with no database representation and would like to change this so the field's value is stored in the database.

How do I change the field type to Standard field?

Hi Ben,

I'm afraid you would need to re-create this field. For example, you can rename the existing one and create a new normal database field with this name.

In case you already have code for it best to remove the field and create one with the same name with DB representation. This way it won't break your code and should be able to get the exact same name.
