Comments.Text: perhaps provide some more details/screenshots eg of your custom field set up. I.e. to confirm the custom fields ARE for participants rather than some other entity.

Comments.Text: Are the custom fields editable? A custom field could be set to view only? And is the custom group set to a specific participant role/event type? And if so is the participant record from a different type?
