           Summary: Custom field is not automatically created when a new
                    contact is created.
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: sayeed.ka at gmail.com
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: kaddressbook

1. A custom field created in an existing contact in an address book is NOT
automatically created in a new contact after the new contact is created EVEN
THOUGH the "Use field for all contacts" box was PREVIOUSLY checked in the
existing contact.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select an existing contact in an Address book.
2. Open it in the "edit" mode.
3. Click the mouse on the "Custom fields" tab.
4. Click the mouse on the "Add" button to create a custom field. 
5. Enter a custom field name and check the  "Use field for all contacts" box.
6. Close the existing contact.
7. Now create a new contact by clicking on the "New Contact" button or by using
the menu.
8. Click the mouse on the "Custom fields" tab of the new contact.
9. Examine the custom fields to determine if the previously created custom
field (see step 5) exists in the newly created contact.
Actual Results:  
1. No custom field was displayed.

Expected Results:  
1. Every custom field for which the "Use field for all contacts" box was
checked in any and every existing contact must be displayed, must be
intelligible, and must be usable in a NEW CONTACT whenever a new contact is
created.

1. The Operating System in use is Kubuntu 12.04.

2. The KDE PIM was installed automatically during the OS installation process.

3. Other problems relating to custom fields in the address book have been
reported earlier.
