I have customized the editform.aspx page but it is loading for some items in the list not for all the list items. Please tell me the reason why is that?

Thanks

Come on, how do you expect someone to possibly answer this? What have you done to customise it? Whats happening when it fails, are you getting any error messages? – Ryan May 17 '12 at 10:57

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

I am assuming:

  1. That you added some custom columns to a existing list, with a previously defined content type.
  2. You are trying to insert that list as a "custom list form" on your page.

When you do insert the "custom list form" you are given the option to choose the type of form (New, Edit, Display).

However there is also a "Content Type" to use in form drop down. Make note of the content type. Then make sure that any added custom columns that you created are also added to that content type.

So you will have to allow "content management" for that list....and add the columns to whichever content type is associated with that list.

Once you do that inserting a new "custom list form" and pointing to that list will pull in all the fields you are looking for.

Cheers.
