Edit drop down problem.

[vab3]

I've modified the Lead Status dropdown. The values show up on the lead edit form, but when I try to do a mass update, or a custom search, the new drop down choices do not show up.

Any ideas? Can I check something in the database, or run something and send a log file?

Also, this has worked in the past. I wonder if it was due to moving sugar to a new server, and then back to the original one?

I'm using Windows 2003 Server Web Edition, Sugar Suite 4.5.0h, MySQL 4.0.24a, PHP 5.1.6. Also noted the problem in 4.5.0f before upgrading to h.

you might want to check vardef in the module. my guess is that the database name is incorrect.

There are two drop downs for lead status.

lead_status_dom & lead_status_noblank_dom,

I believe you need to make the changes to both, I can't remember which one the Mass Update uses.

Hi,
check file vardefs.php in your modul which you wont to change massupdate field.
The field you wont to show on mass update panel must have in definition this line
'massupdate' => true,
the field you don't wont to show in mass update panel check as false.
if this is what you want ,else post and i will check and reply,
Alex

I have the same problem. I am using version 4.5f and changed the dropdown contact values to allow me to track whether a lead is cold, warm or hot and also to say if I have called them or not.

The dropdowns work fine in the leads module, where I am editing one lead at a time.

However, in the mass update box, the drop down list is the original list , not the updated list that I created. This appears to indicate that it is using a different dropdown table.

Shouldn't it be using the same one ?

What can I look at to determine how to fix this?
