Change "Title"-Field in "convert leads" in the leads module?

[fabivomsee]

Greetings to the Forum.

I am wondering how to change the field: "Title" in the "convert leads" section. It seems, that sugar just takes the field: "title" from the contacts module.
But this field is a textfield and I created a new field with a dropdownlist and wnat to implement it to be converted from leads to contacts.

thank you for your replies.

regards

Hi Fabi,

Hope you are using SugarCE-5.2.0 version if yes please follow the below

Do the changes on ContactFormBase.php (modules/Contacts /ContactFormBase.php)

Step 1: Add this @ line number 258 $title_options=get_select_options_with_id($app_lis t_strings['title_dom'], $contact->title); (assuming you have created title_dom already )

Step 2: on the line number 284 u could find <td class='dataField' nowrap><input name='${prefix}title' type="text" value="{$contact->title}"></td>
change this into
<td class='dataField'><select name='${prefix}title'>$title_options</select>

Step3: now you can this in browser

Hope this will help you

Thanks for your answer!
When I do the suggested steps, I get the error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /xxxx/webseiten/xxxxxxx/modules/Contacts/ContactFormBase.php on line 254

Here the Code from Line 250 to 259

}
	$lbl_email_address = $mod_strings['LBL_EMAIL_ADDRESS'];
	$salutation_options=get_select_options_with_id($app_list_strings['salutation_dom'], $contact->salutation);
	if (isset($contact->lead_source)) {
		$lead_source_options=get_select_options_with_id($app_list_strings['lead_source_dom'], $contact->lead_source);
	} else {
		$lead_source_options=get_select_options_with_id($app_list_strings['lead_source_dom'], '');
	}
$title_options=get_select_options_with_id($app_lis t_strings['saluation_title_list'], $contact->title);
	$form="";

I didn't change anything in line 254...
please excuse the spelling mistake in "saluation"...
hope you can help....

Thanks so much to Ecrypt
There is a T-String in the Source of ecrypt... And Here is now the complete Solution of Ecrypt without the T String.. and it is working perfectly!!!

change this into
<td class='dataField'><select name='${prefix}title'>$title_options</select>

Step3: now you can see this in browser
----------------------------------
there is just one thing missing:
the title field under contacts still is empty...
