Project task problems

[davide69]

Hi to all
I have a problem with project task due to a changement made in Layout view with studio.
With layout editor I have removed fields "duration" and "duration unit" from edit view.
After this operation, when I create a new project task, I have an error because duration and duration unit are required field.
To repair the problem I have added duration and duration unit in edit view layout but now these 2 fields have become visible in add project task mask and this is not correct.
How can I hide these two fields in add project task mask ?

thank for support

Hi to all
I have isolated the problem:
why if I have in C:\Program Files\sugarcrm-5.2.0e\htdocs\sugarcrm\modules\ProjectTask\metadat a\editviewdefs.php
input type="hidden"

*****************************
array (
array (
'name' => 'duration',
'hideLabel' => true,
'customCode' => '<input type="hidden" name="duration" id="projectTask_duration" value="0" />',
),
),
array (
array (
'name' => 'duration_unit',
'hideLabel' => true,
'customCode' => '<input type="hidden" name="duration_unit" id="projectTask_durationUnit" value="Days" />',
),
),
*****************************

I see in edit mask the field "duration" and "duration unit" ?
see attachment

Thank Davide

Hello,

Yes, this is the problem...

Did you use Studio before?

I mean does file "custom/modules/ProjectTask/metadat a/editviewdefs.php" exist?

Cheers,

Yes I use studio to change edit layout and (mea culpa) I have removed the field "duration" and "duration unit"
After I have re-added the fields but the result is that the fields are not hidden.

Yes, the file "custom/modules/ProjectTask/metadata/editviewdefs.php" exist

Ciao davide

Open "custom/modules/ProjectTask/metadata/editviewdefs.php"

remove your definition of "duration" and "duration_unit"
and add following

 'templateMeta' => array(
              'form' => array(
                  'hidden'=>array('
                     '<input tabindex="0"  type="hidden" name="duration" id="projectTask_duration" value="0" />',
                     '<input tabindex="0"  type="hidden" name="duration_unit" id="projectTask_durationUnit" value="Days" />,
                   ),................................

Yes !! this solves the problem
If I delete the file
custom/modules/ProjectTask/metadata/editviewdefs.php
the result is to restore the "factory" default of edit project task layout....
Right !!! thanks.... thanks a lot
