Custom fields with duplicate labels are not displayed correctly in views

Steps to recreate:

  • Create a custom field group associated with organisations, add a field with the label 'Role' (eg: ID 1)
  • Create a custom field group associated with individuals, add a field with the label 'Role' (eg: ID 2)
  • Create a view which exposes the second 'role' field on a contact record
  • The field is always empty

Reason:

  • The custom field handler is searching for the field ID based on the label of the field, which is a loose search

Remedy:

  • Tighten the custom field handler to search for the ID of the field based on the unique column name
