Schematic done,having trouble with footprint association!Need help

Hi Guys,
I need some urgent help. I have created a custom library in EESchema, saved it,completed the circuit ,done the annotation, but each time this specific pin header connector reverts back to #J046 when I only have 4 connectors in total on the circuit.I change the reference in EEschema to J4 , which isn’t clashing with any other connector,do my DRC and then run CvPCB, and this connector doesn’t not show up in the component list at all. I have deleted all the foot print associations, to see if I start that from scratch if it will work, but it still doesn’t show up in the component list…really starting to get me down,any advice will be appreciated.

Thank you

I think this from the FAQ will help.

Did you mistakenly define the symbol as a “power symbol”? That should only be used for power rails, not regular components.
