Use this page when CMS content or schema behavior does not look right.

## A Table Is Missing From The Sidebar

Check these items:

1. Open `Databases`.
2. Confirm the database exists.
3. Edit the database and confirm `Hidden` is off.
4. If the database is inside a folder, edit the folder and confirm `Hidden` is off.
5. Refresh CMS.

## The Entry Form Has No Fields

Open the database row menu and click `Edit Schema`.

Add fields before creating entries.

## A Field Does Not Appear In The Entry Form

Check the field settings:

* The field key exists.
* The field is not hidden.
* Conditional visibility rules are not hiding it.
* The field belongs to the correct database.

## A Field Does Not Appear In Filters

Open the field's `Display` tab and confirm `Filterable` is on.

Hidden fields and fields without keys are not available as normal filters.

## Relation Options Are Empty

Check these items:

1. Confirm the relation field has a related table selected.
2. Confirm the related table has entries.
3. Set a `Display Field` or `Display Template` so options have useful labels.
4. Refresh the entry form.

## Developer Output Looks Wrong

Review the CMS schema.

Generated code uses database identifiers and field keys. If names are unclear or missing, update the schema before sharing the generated API client or API examples.
