Resolution

<div></div><div style="color:#222222;font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"><p>WORKAROUND:<br /><br />The workaround is use the <em>absolute URL</em> of the site instead of the <em>relative URL</em>.<br /><br />For example, assume that the configuration of a <em>Cross-site field</em> is:<br /><br /><Field Name="TestField" DisplayFieldName="TestField" SortField="TestField" SortOrder="ASC"><br />  <List SiteUrl="./subSite" ListName="listName" /><br /></Field><br /><br />And the <em>absolute URL</em> of the SharePoint list is:     <br />          http://hostName/subSite/listName<br /><br />In order to get around the issue, you need to modify the configuration to:<br /><br /><Field Name="TestField" DisplayFieldName="TestField" SortField="TestField" SortOrder="ASC"><br />  <List SiteUrl="http://hostName/subSite/" ListName="listName" /><br /></Field><br /><br />You can also change the Site URL from "." to "http://hostName/subSite/" when searching for the SharePoint list in the <strong>ezEdit.</strong><br /><br /><br />STATUS:</p><p>Waiting for fix in a future release of <strong>Quick Apss for SharePoint.</strong></p><p><br /></p></div><div style="color:#222222;font-family:Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;"></div><div></div>
