Description

Hi,

When I add a custom field to an enumeration and the custom field has the "Multiple values" option set, it is not possible to change the custom value when editing the enumeration.

This is because with multiple values the POST parameter is an array, but that is not permitted in the EnumerationsController.

Here is a patch to fix this issue:

   def enumeration_params
     # can't require enumeration on #new action
-    cf_ids = @enumeration.available_custom_fields.map{|c| c.id.to_s}
+    cf_ids = @enumeration.available_custom_fields.map{|c| c.multiple? ? {c.id.to_s => []} : c.id.to_s}
     params.permit(:enumeration => [:name, :active, :is_default, :position, :custom_field_values => cf_ids])[:enumeration]
   end
 end

Best regards,
Thomas

I have confirmed that values for a custom field of time tracking activities cannot be saved if "Multiple values" option is enabled.

I have confirmed that the code you wrote in descriptipn solves this problem.
To permit an array value of strong_parameters, it is necessary to set an empty array, so {c.id.to_s => []} is set when c.multiple? is true.

The attached patch adds a test to the code written by Thomas Löber.
