>          Key: DSY-265
>          URL: http://issues.cocoondev.org//browse/DSY-265
>      Project: Daisy
>         Type: New Feature
>     Versions: 1.4.1
>  Environment: Linux
>     Reporter: Andreas Deininger
>     Priority: Minor

> Description of  problem:
> Recently I removed a certain field from one of my document types. Im my repository, there are already some pages of that document type which have values for that field. So whenever I edit such a page I get a tab "additional parts & fields", which is perfectly fine:
> Listed below are fields that exist in the document but are no longer
> allowed by the document type.
> ...
> However if I do not remove these fields and save the document, I get the following error:
> Sitemap: error calling continuation
> The document contains a not-allowed field (FieldType ID: 14).
> for which there are already data given.
> This error it was confusing for some of my users. IMHO, we should hide this message to ordinary users. Maybe this can be done via implementation of the following behaviour:
> * if the check box "Validate against document type" is enabled, a warning should be given, like that is the case with empty required fields, and the user should not be able to save the document.
> * if the check box "Validate against document type" is disabled, you should be able to save the document without any warning, like it is the case right now.
> Maybe there is also another (better?) way to prevent this error message from coming up.
