Hey John!, thankx for your response. I totally understand what you are saying, but I am in fact doing everything in code. (there is no update button).
Maybe the only situation you might be refering to, is when the field was created at a later stage, then updated the post throught the admin, then delete the two rows from the database, and then update it again in code. <- this is what I did in my local environment, and as I said the fields created without issues.
What I am going to do next is to update with code in my remote environment without adding the field data in the post, then check if there is an issue. <- this has to be the cleanest, non-existent data-field whatsoever. (I am really hoping something will go wrong in that scenario) otherwise, I will still be confused about when to use the field reference…
