Contact View - Remove bottom tabs (activities, direct reports, etc..)

[rps1984]

I pointed out in the screenshot some areas that I don't want displayed. Such as Direct Reports, Campaigns, and Activities. Any idea how to remove these using the Studio? Or do I need to edit a file manually, and if so, any idea what file?

Hi!

you have to edit the file modules/"Your module"/layout_defs.php

just remove the arrays that you needn't anymore.

hope it will help you!

[rps1984]

I am getting quite a bit of errors as I try to mess around with this file and comment out certain sections..

Since this is the Open Source version, I'll post the code for this file, and hopefully someone might be able to be a little more specific with what needs to be commented out...

I am trying to remove "Activities" and "Member Organizations".

Any ideas about what exactly to comment out?

Hi All!

Sorry for a delay. I also agree with kbrill.

rps1984 if you still need any help please let us know so we can help you.

[rps1984]

Thanks for the code. Although I would rather do it myself and learn for the future, than just copy/paste what you sent.

Maybe if you could send over a copy with the stuff commented out, it would make more sense. I looked over the code and didn't really see the sections that were removed.

[kbrill]

It's pretty straight forward what I did, I simply removed the "'activities' => array(" section and the "'accounts' => array(" section near the bottom. You just have to match up the ( and the ) signs.

[rps1984]

I went ahead and commented out the sections you mention, and receive the following error:

I tried the code you posted, and see the same errors.

[kbrill]

I'm not sure you can comment out that way in an array. Did you try it without the code in there at all. Would like to see if that works.

[andydreisch]

Hi rps1984, can you tell us the reasoning behind this change? I'm curious why History and Activities in particular would be removed.

Thanks,

Andy
