did they remove custom fields in the community 16 version? I am trying to install from a backup and I don't see custom fields available anymore.

Please clarify, have you restored your original database and you are not seeing custom fields that you had already created prior to the backup?

Sorry, perhaps I'm not understanding. If you are planning on restoring a database, you should not be trying to add data to a current fresh database, as it will all get wiped when you restore anyways.

I will be restoring the database, but first i wanted to make sure all of the features are there. I am not adding anything new, but I noticed that custom fields are not showing in my new install of 16.2.4. I don't have the option of company > custom fields in this new install. my 15 version has an option for community forms, but a fresh install of v16.2.4 doesn't have an option under company > custom fields.
