Custom field filter

[Ciscoweb]

Hi,

do u know if it's possible to add filters on custom fields in order to visualize a custom field only if the contact is connected to a specifical option (assigned to an user etc..).
Or is there any plugin that can add different contacts modules?

thanks in advantage,
cisco

You can add the custom fields you have created to the search and advanced search panels and filter results accordingly

You want to hide/display a field based on some conditions? That's definitely possible but will take some technical expertise. There are some different ways of going about that with one being to add javascript to the edit/detailviewdefs.php that will set the display to block/none depending on the condition you want.

eggsurplus,

Can you give an example of changing javascript in this file?
<root>/custom/modules/Opportunities/metadata/editviewdefs.php
Not sure where to add the javascript.
Is this the correct file?

The problem I am trying to solve is very simple:
I need to hide the Probability input field so that users cannot edit directly, but javascript can.
If the user changes the Sales Stage, then Probability will be auto-populated
(autopopulated by PROBABILITY_SCRIPT (i think, but cannot find it).

I have tried to edit
<root>/custom/modules/Opportunities/metadata/editviewdefs.php
and make Probability readonly => true, but this creates null values in database>Opportunities/probability

PROBABILITY_SCRIPT is a javascript and therefore it relies on the Probability input field being writeable in the browser UI.
Is there a built in displayparam such as 'hidden' => 'true' or 'display' => 'none' to hide the field?
Will I need to change the smarty template javascript?

I found out how to hide fields with Javascript.
This solves my problem. The field is still actionable by javascript, but user cannot interact.
I copied
/modules/Opportunities/views/view.edit.php
to
/custom/modules/Opportunities/views/view.edit.php

The I added code to change the style elements of the probability field:
This solves my problem by hiding the field when the user mouses over.
The field reappears when the user selects a new Sales Stage.
I know...goofy, but it IS upgrade safe and does what I need.
It also doesn't interfere with the PROBABILITY_SCRIPT 's original purpose.

document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].style.display = "none";

$probability_script=<<<EOQ^M
        <script>^M
        prob_array = $prob_array;^M
       
        document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].onmouseover = function() {
                            document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].style.display = "none";
                          };
        document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].onmouseover = function() {
                            document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].style.display = "block";
                       if(typeof(document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value) != "undefined" && prob_array[document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value]) {
                             document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].value = prob_array[document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value];
                            }
                         };
        document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].onchange = function() {
                        if(typeof(document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value) != "undefined" && prob_array[document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value]) {
                                document.getElementsByName('probability')[0].value = prob_array[document.getElementsByName('sales_stage')[0].value];

                           }
                        };
        $prePopProb^M
        </script>^M
