I discovered what I was doing wrong, and I think I know how you can recreate it. If you add a second ID and do not use a comma to separate the id's, it will blank the entire field. I had not seen the comma to separate the ids, and that seems to be what was causing the problem.

After looking into it, it seems that when a space is placed, it clears out the entire id which is not separated by a comma. So, if you input
isbn:123456789, amazon:1234567 boi:12345678 then the second field will not stay. If there is no comma when you enter a second id, then the entire field clears.

While I don't know if this is designed that way or not, it will likely cause questions in the future for people manually adding ids.
