References lost when a content type is renamed Actually I work in a project developed using drupal 7.
Drupal is totally new for me and sometimes something happens that leaves me stunned…
Today I have discovered something terrifying: when a content type is renamed (and his machine name change), you have to turn the whole project in the parts where the content type was used (in my specific case rules link) because when the machine name change it is possible that the references are lost!!!

You can help me to understand this comportament?
why not name it back, and then only changing the displayname, not the machinename would maybe sufficent for you ?

else do an export and import - as suggestes via features module.
