Login, forward to search

[tpharaoh]

I posted this on another thread, but it was old, so maybe it is not viewed so often...

I was trying to use the URL to do login and then go straight to search results.

This method worked in another crm, which is quite similar
http://localhost/sugar/index.php?act..._string=012399

This is how I assumed it should be in Sugar:
http://localhost/sugar/index.php?act...012222&x=0&y=0

The final goal is a link which will log me on and run the search it will be used in a screen pop for telephone system.

I should add the telephone system is not asterisk, its a custom program so the post aobut YAAI would not work for me

Yes this looks possible. Look at modules/Users/Authenticate.php to find variable names.

Thanks for the quick reply, it does log in with the above, but it doesn't forward to search which the login_module I assumed did. I tried also with return_module, same result.

I got an idea from you, I guess this isn't a clean solution but it works for my needs...

I added this to Authenticate.php and in my login string I added the search_string I want.

if($_GET[search_string]!=''){
$searchurl="Location: index.php?action=UnifiedSearch&module=Home&search_ form=false&advanced=false&query_string=$_GET[search_string]&x=14&y=8";
header($searchurl);
}

If that's the case it seems that it is indeed impossible without coding.

But you could also put that code in an after_login logic hook and be upgrade-safe.

Finally, I don't want to nit pick, but this call is a bit better:

SugarApplication::redirect($searchurl);
