add new address to person template

[zaska]

Hi folks,

I want to add new address type in person template. In include/SugarObjects/templates/person/vardefs.php I copy the fields for alt_address:

        'mail_address_street' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_street',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_STREET',
                        'type' => 'varchar',
                        'len' => '150',
                        'group'=>'mail_address',
                        'comment' => 'Street address for mailing address',
            'merge_filter' => 'enabled',
                ),
        'mail_address_street_2' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_street_2',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_STREET_2',
                        'type' => 'varchar',
                        'len' => '150',
                        'source' => 'non-db',
                ),
        'mail_address_street_3' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_street_3',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_STREET_3',
                        'type' => 'varchar',
                        'len' => '150',
                        'source' => 'non-db',
                ),
        'mail_address_city' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_city',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_CITY',
                        'type' => 'varchar',
                        'len' => '100',
                        'group'=>'mail_address',
                        'comment' => 'City for mailing address',
            'merge_filter' => 'enabled',
                ),
        'mail_address_postalcode' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_postalcode',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_POSTALCODE',
                        'type' => 'varchar',
                        'len' => '20',
                        'group'=>'mail_address',
                        'comment' => 'Postal code for mailing address',
            'merge_filter' => 'enabled',
                ),
        'mail_address_country' =>
                array (
                        'name' => 'mail_address_country',
                        'vname' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_COUNTRY',
                        'type' => 'enum',
                        'options' => 'countries_dom',
                        'group'=>'mail_address',
                        'comment' => 'Country for mailing address',
            'merge_filter' => 'enabled',
                ),

(removed 'state' and little tuning to 'country')

Now in Studio in Contacts->fields I have the new mailing address fields. How to group them like Primary/Alternate addresses and put only one field in edit/defail view? What is the purpose of group in vardefs.php?

'group' => 'some_group'

I guess there is not a group called mailing_address
Thanks

Sorry. It is somewhat related to what you are expecting, but not an exact one. So i deleted it.

Figured it out.

Tune custom/modules/Contacts/metadata/edit|detail
Tune include/SugarFields/Fields/Addres

          array (
            'name' => 'mail_address_street',
            'hideLabel' => true,
            'type' => 'address',
            'displayParams' =>
            array (
              'key' => 'mail',
              'rows' => 2,
              'cols' => 30,
              'maxlength' => 150,
            ),
            'label' => 'LBL_MAIL_ADDRESS_STREET',
          ),
          1 => NULL,
        ),
