HOW TO change dropdown by Search function?

[dekleinemedia]

Hi,

I have the following question;

I created a new module called 'Planning" with some new fields.
When i go to the overview you can search for existing data;

The datatype of these created fields is dropdown.

Now i want the overview to just let me see an standard empty field, and that i can choose a data for search from the dropdown box.
See screenshot.

Can someone tell me how to change this?

Thanks, Much appreciate

Hi Jordy

You need to add the attribute

 'displayParams' => array(
  'size' => '1',
), 
  

On field defs at custom/modules/<YourModule>/metadata/searchdefs.php

Cheers

Hi Andopes,

Thx for your reply.
There is no such map and file in this directory;

custom/modules/Plan_Planning_Projecten/metadata/searchdefs.php

I had already deployed this module so I can find this file in;

modules/Plan_Planning_Projecten/metadata

Php code;

 <?php
$module_name = 'Plan_Planning_Projecten';
$searchdefs [$module_name] = 
array (
  'layout' => 
  array (
    'basic_search' => 
    array (
      'planning_month' => 
      array (
        'width' => '10%',
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_MONTH',
        'default' => true,
        'name' => 'planning_month',
      ),
      'planning_year' => 
      array (
        'width' => '10%',
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_YEAR',
        'default' => true,
        'name' => 'planning_year',
      ),
    ),
    'advanced_search' => 
    array (
      'planning_month' => 
      array (
        'width' => '10%',
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_MONTH',
        'default' => true,
        'name' => 'planning_month',
      ),
      'planning_year' => 
      array (
        'width' => '10%',
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_YEAR',
        'default' => true,
        'name' => 'planning_year',
      ),
      'planning_sort' => 
      array (
        'width' => '10%',
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_SORT',
        'default' => true,
        'name' => 'planning_sort',
      ),
    ),
  ),
  'templateMeta' => 
  array (
    'maxColumns' => '3',
    'widths' => 
    array (
      'label' => '10',
      'field' => '30',
    ),
  ),
);
?>  

Do i need to modify this file? And where will i have to add this code;

'displayParams' => array(
'size' => '1',
)

Hope you can help me.
Thanxxxx

Copy the file to the custom directory and modify it there.

     'advanced_search' =>  
    array ( 
      'planning_month' =>  
      array ( 
        'width' => '10%', 
        'label' => 'LBL_PLANNING_MONTH', 
        'default' => true, 
        'name' => 'planning_month', 
        'displayParams' => array( 
          'size' => '1', 
        ), 
      ),
