How to remove searchfields from Popup window?

[dekleinemedia]

Hi,

I have the following issue of which i hope someone could help me with.

I have created 2 custom modules named; Municipality and Contracts. I have created a one-to-one relation between these custom modules.
Now i have a related field in Contracts, where i can search for a Municipality. When I use "Select" button to search for a "Municipality" i get a PopUp window
link: /index.php?module=Muni_Municipalities&action=Popup& mode=single&create=true&metadata=undefined

Now I want to modify this Popup screen and remove some fields from search. I did the following to achieve this, but unfortunately nothing has changed;

I copied the file popupdefs.php from modules\Muni_Municipalities\metadata and saved this file in
custom\modules\Muni_Municipalities\metadata

This is the code of my custom popupdefs.php;

 <?php

if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');

$module_name = 'Muni_Municipalities';
$_module_name = 'muni_municipalities';
$popupMeta = array('moduleMain' => $module_name,
                        'varName' => $module_name,
                        'orderBy' => $_module_name.'.name',
                        'whereClauses' => 
                            array('name' => $_module_name.'.name'),
                        'searchInputs' =>
                            array('name'),
                        );
?>  

here is the code of my custom SearchFields.php

 <?php

if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');

$module_name = 'Muni_Municipalities';
$searchFields[$module_name] = 
    array (
        'name' => array( 'query_type'=>'default'),
    );
?>  

This doesn't seems to change anything. Can someone tell me what i did wrong? Or have i forgot something?
I have Developer Mode enabled.

Thanks in advance

Hmm..... seems that I have to create a new Popup.php and Popup_picker.php

I will give a try first. I will come back with the result

Are you very sure? Most modules use popupdefs.php.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. You're right, but that doesn't seems to solve the issue. Can you see anything strange in my code above? I only want to search for 'name' in PopUp window, but instead i get a bunch of fields to search for.
This is Searchfields.php in module/Muni_Municipalities/metadata

 <?php
$module_name = 'Muni_Municipalities';
$searchFields[$module_name] = 
    array (
        'name' => array( 'query_type'=>'default'),
        'account_type'=> array('query_type'=>'default', 'options' => 'account_type_dom', 'template_var' => 'ACCOUNT_TYPE_OPTIONS'),
        'industry'=> array('query_type'=>'default', 'options' => 'industry_dom', 'template_var' => 'INDUSTRY_OPTIONS'),
        'annual_revenue'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'address_street'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('billing_address_street','shipping_address_street')),
        'address_city'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('billing_address_city','shipping_address_city')),
        'address_state'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('billing_address_state','shipping_address_state')),
        'address_postalcode'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('billing_address_postalcode','shipping_address_postalcode')),
        'address_country'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('billing_address_country','shipping_address_country')),
        'rating'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'phone'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('phone_office')),
        'email'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('email1','email2')),
        'website'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'ownership'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'employees'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'ticker_symbol'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
        'current_user_only'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('assigned_user_id'),'my_items'=>true, 'vname' => 'LBL_CURRENT_USER_FILTER', 'type' => 'bool'),
        'assigned_user_id'=> array('query_type'=>'default'),
    );
?>  

This is my custom Searchfields.php in custom/modules/Muni_Municipalities/metadata

 <?php
 
$searchFields[$module_name] = 
    array (
        'name' => array( 'query_type'=>'default'),
        'current_user_only'=> array('query_type'=>'default','db_field'=>array('assigned_user_id'),'my_items'=>true, 'vname' => 'LBL_CURRENT_USER_FILTER', 'type' => 'bool'),
    );
?>  

Thanks in advance

you can edit popupdefs.php file to add or remove searchfields.
you can add in this array.........'searchdefs' => array(
'first_name',
'last_name',
array('name' => 'account_name', 'displayParams' => array('hideButtons'=>'true', 'size'=>30, 'class'=>'sqsEnabled sqsNoAutofill')),

)


then rebuild relationships from Admin panel.

Ok, a few things:

- SearchFields.php has nothing to do with this, also do not change it unless you need to because it is not customizable
- If there is a Popup.php in the module dir, then that one is used. Otherwise popupdefs is used if there is not some action_file_map.php or other major MVC override present.
- popupdefs.php is metadata and Smarty data and therefore cached, so whatever you do, enable Developer Mode first
- There is no need to rebuild relationships (that is for TableDictionary). If you do not enable dev mode then you may use Clear Template Data Cache, or just Quick Repair

Thanks for the info SugarDev. This makes it a lot easier to understand now. I still wonder why my PopUp search fields still show these searchfields, when I want this to only show the 'name' field.
See screenshot.

Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it

I see $searchFields[$module_name] in your popupdefs.php

Is that variable set?

Hi,

I think there was something wrong with my custom searchdefs.php file. I created a new one, customized the advance search defs and now it works like it should be

Thanks for all the help!
