Input Field not showing
I am perplexed. I have a VisualForce page that has several input fields and for some reason this one is not showing up:
<apex:inputField value="{!Contact_Update__c.Home_State__c}" styleclass="apexInputField"/>
The other fields around it appear fine. Looking in the controller the value seems to be assigned, and if I change the word Home to Work (I have another field called Work_State__c) then the input field appears.
What places should I look to try and track down why this may not be showing. It seems like the code in the VisualForce page is correct.
UPDATE: When comparing the VisualForce page, to the Sites Page I note that its on the Site page only where the field is missing. The site uses the same VisualForce page, but I wonder if its some sort of a permission issue? Where should I be checking?
It turned out that under the Sites profile for the public user that particular field was not checked. Once I checked it everything worked like a charm.

Hi. I am having the same issue, possibly, you are having.
I say possibly because I cannot see a certain field logged in or logged out on a VF page.
There is no Sites profile in my org. Can you share a snapshot or details on where this setting is, possibly?
Thank you!

You will definetly have a site profile.
Open site and you will see a button Public Access Setting Click on this button and check Custom Field-Level Security section in page and click view button to check for a specific objects field visibilty. And make them visible.
Thanks

Vijay, thank you! I still cannot see the field, but your post pushed me in the right direction. I set the field to READ.
Now, in the FLS for the Object, I have it set to Visible and Read Only except for system admin.
This should let me see the field on a VF page, if done properly, right?
Well, I'm brand new but here's my code while using the Contact standardController:
{!Contact.prof_sum__c}test
The "test" text shows up, but no field. Any suggestions, possibly?
Thx, Vijay!

If you are looking this page on force.com site then its not possible that you donot have a site profile.
Issue is definetely from profile securirty which restricting to visible on VF page.
Thanks

Perhaps I didn't explain or didn't understand what you just now said, Vijay.
I did locate the site profile and drilled down into the object Contact and located the field I am trying to view. I was able to select the view checkbox and save.
Now, I still cannot see this custom field in my VF page. My page is publicly accessible and I can see stati resource images and images. This one field is a rich text field and I pasted the action to get it, above.
Does thsi clarify a bit more my issue? Thank you, either way for reaching out!
