Because of a DOS vulnerability in PHP (http://www.phpclasses.org/blog/post/171-PHP-Vulnerability-May-Halt-Millions-of-Servers.html), a limit to php fields was added as the default. It there are 1,000+ fields, the default is to truncate these fields without any notice. Several of my clients have suffered from this issues. Specifically, plugins that use a custom post type with a lot of meta data will be effected. This seems to be a core issue rather than a plugin issue. There are two solutions: Ideally, the data should all be wrapped in one field and submitted (as ajax requests currently are), or less ideal there should be a warning when data is lost." defect (bug) closed normal Posts, Post Types normal invalid administration
