Creating a new field does work. I was just hoping I wouldn't have to duplicate the field information for the 140+ profiles that are currently using the field.

Given the amount of time I've spun my wheels, I'd probably be further ahead now. One day I'll learn proper time use.

You may not need to. Could just be a disconnect between the field and its column. Within _comprofiler_fields find your fields row then ensure the following information is correct.

tablecolumns: This should be the same as the fields name (e.g. cb_field)
table: #__comprofiler

Sometimes the table is broken by backup software and will break the storage behavior. If tablecolumns is empty it means the field has no storage and this should be the fields name for a standard text field.

That did it. The name and tablecolumns were no longer matching in MySQL. One was cb_website and the other Website. Setting them to match resolved the issue.

Thank you!
