Title: Custom fields not showing in import and export filter
ThreadText: # Custom fields not showing in import and export filter
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2020-04-03)
  
  I have two sets of custom fields related to two sub-types of the same type (organization). Both profiles are active and I can see the custom fields in the contact summaries and in the advance search tool.
  
  If I want to import a file and try to map fields choosing the proper sub-type, in one case I have the custom fields proposed and in the other case not.
  
  The field mapper also shows the right relationships related to each sub-type.
  
  I compared parameters for the custom fields and I can't see any difference.
  
  Is this to be set somewhere else deep into CiviCRM?
  
  best regards,
  username_0
  
  EDIT 1: the required custom fields are searchable:

  EDIT 3: I also encounter this with custom fields for Individual type.
