Joe, Like some of the other elements on the page, Phone, Mobile, the location and postcode and the website link under the checkbox area, The Field id is taken from directory/custompress and added into the meta key field within loopbuddy.
if it helps, this is the meta key ct_Type_of_Pl_checkbox_4023

Greetings Ian,
Thank you for the additional feedback, it is greatly appreciated.
From first glance I thought we were having a code stripping problem similar to that done by the visual editor.
I have no clue as to why it is not rendering correctly other then a possible loopbuddy problem/conflict and I am the first to admit that I certainly do not know everything.
Therefore I am going to see if I can get the lead developer with his invaluable insight to possibly give us the answer to why this is rendering in this manner.
Though this may take a bit longer then a normal ticket, I will try to get his attention in here asap.

Looks like you triggered some debug code in one of the plugins. A print_r statement is writing out the value of an array.
Two things. Try using the attached beta of Directory.
Second in your Loopbuddy, looks like you've made a custom post type locations. Make sure that the Rewrite slug in the post type is different from the slug for the page displaying your loopbuddy pages. The must be unique or the system can't tell which one to. use

Hi Arnold, Thanks for replying, I updated the plug in, no change. Sorry, I'm not exactly sure about the rewrite slug in the post types. Can you expand further please?
I do have a unique layout in loopbuddy for the "Melbourne Page" which wil hold 10 or 15 excerpts as I add mor content. When the permailnk is clicked there is a different layout being used.

Hi Ian,
Here's what I'm finding. You've overridden the default templates for display-custom-fields using the loop buddy pages instead. Then you used customfields in loopbuddy to pull the custom fields into you loopbuddy page. That works on simple strings, text and textarea, but not on complex type like checkboxes, radio boxes etc. For those the data is stored as arrays that can store multiple values and need to be interpreted to display in a comma delimited list. So a loopbuddy custom field tag isn't going to work.
What should work is using a shortcode for the custom field. The shortcode would expand the field for you. I tried it on your "Directory Page Melbourne" layout. I put the shortcode for the custom field in a shortcode loopbuddy special tag. but it returns nothing. To make sure the shortcode was working I put it in the Listing for Active Plumber for a test and there it expands properly. So the shortcode loopbuddy tag isn't working in this case.
The rest of the fields appear to be working.
don't know what you can do about it as loopbuddy is controlling the display.

Greetings Ian,
It appears that the array is having a portion of it's code stripped.
Do you know or have the entire code for displaying/rendering the array on a page?
Please advise.
Cheers, Joe
