In SharePoint 2007, we have encountered a very evil problem, we have added a new people type field in a custom list to use this field in the view =[me] but it didn't work, and all of the places seemed normal, But the user has no way to use this filtering settings to show their own content.
Tried a lot of ways, because our list is a custom list, new forms, view forms, edit forms are displayed through custom DataFormWebPart, where each field ID is marked with a similar ff23{$Pos}. and the number of FF that is added to this field is random, will SharePoint have special tags on its numbers? Should be the sequence number of the Add field? And so on and tried a lot of ways and methods, finally in a blog to find the answer:
SharePoint 2007 has no limit on the number of people type fields, but if more than 16 people type fields are not available in the view, and in our tests, even if some of the preceding fields are deleted, they cannot be used in the view. Either SharePoint also makes Count of deleted fields, or the server requires IIS restart, about the latter point because work is not attempted in a restricted environment.
