application template IT team workspace Adding Columns BUG

I've just setup an IT team workspace and I've added a couple of new
columns to the porjects list, I can see these in the list views but
when I add or edit the list items the fields don't appear!

Have I just found a bug?

So we can exclude this reason, are you installing on an English language
version of WSS 3.0 ?

Yep, you can exclude that it's the English version. Any Ideas?

I am having this exact same problem. The column will appear in a
datasheet view, but the column is not there when creating an item, or
using the standard edit view.

I think I figured it out. The lists in the IT Project Workspace (and
many of the other Application templates) are using Content Types.
Below are the steps I followed...

1. Go to the settings of the list you are working on
2. Add the columns like you normally would
3. Go to the advanced settings
4. Click on "yes" to allow management of content types
5. After clicking ok you'll see a Content Types section in the
settings.
6. Click on the Content Type name (in my case "projects")
7. At the bottom choose "add from exisiting site or list columns"
8. By default you should see all the columns that ou just added.
Move them to the available columns list.
(you can also hide or remove columns that you don't want on your list)
9. Go back to the advanced options and turn off "allow management of
content types".
10. Order the columns

I tried ordering the columns with the content type management on, but
it wouldln't let me. Also, the "new" button on the list was removed.
Turning the content management off corrected this. You may have to go
back and forth until you get your desired result, but it works.
