How can i get custom field to apear on my wordpress admin area (post_type)

Question

I had an issue with WordPress posts_type , the custom fields which are normally at the bottom of each post page were missing.

At the top of your WordPress post page you will see a small grey box that says.. Screen Options. Click this option and then it will provide you with a drop down menu.

I ceck the custom field, it apears but after i Publish The page it disepear again..

I disable all the plugin but no sucess... the same...

How i register my custom post type...

/* ------------ Post Type Stiri -----------*/
register_post_type('stiri', array(  'label' => 'Stiri','description' => '','public' => true,'show_ui' => true,'show_in_menu' => true,'capability_type' => 'post','hierarchical' => true,
'rewrite' => array('slug' => ''),
'query_var' => true,'has_archive' => true,
'menu_position' => 5,'supports' => array('title','editor','custom-fields','category', 'post_tag',),
'labels' => array (
'name' => 'Stiri',
  'singular_name' => 'Stire',
  'menu_name' => 'Stiri',
  'add_new' => 'Add Stire',

  'not_found' => 'No Stiri Found',
  'not_found_in_trash' => 'No Stiri Found in Trash',

Maybe you have the wrong hook for include the custom post type? Do you init your CPT with the function register_post_type() on hook init?

But the settings from the top was saved via AJAX in the database to each users. Check for users the table usermeta. Search for item with meta_key metaboxhidden_stiri. See the value for this entry. This is a serialiced entry, but you can see, which meta box are hidden on start to edit a post to this CPT.

For example a entry: a:3:{i:0;s:10:"postcustom";i:1;s:16:"commentstatusdiv";i:2;s:7:"slugdiv";}

Also give it a meta_mey for default closed items: closedpostboxes_stiri. Check also this.
