Adding a new icon for each row in the List View

[mcharudatta]

Hello,

I am currently customizing the SugarCRM open source (4.5.1e). I want help for the Contact module.

In the 4.5.1e version, a new Edit icon is added for each record in the ListView. Clicking this icon, opens the EditView to edit the currosponding record. Similar to this, I want to add another new icon, say "Recommended" to the ListView. Clicking this new icon, I want to change the color of the currosponding record to some thing different, say red. This will help me to identify all the contacts those I have recommended to some company.

Please let me know if anyone has any idea to achieve this.

Thanks
Charudatta

This would be no small task. Several files would need to be edited and as Contacts shares its ListView generator with all other modules you would have to code it to know you were looking at contacts. You would also need to add a field to keep the 'checked' or 'not checked' data. The file to start with is inclide/ListView/ListView.php. Where in that file you would add your code I am not sure, but you would also need to edit the ListView template files as well.
