How to hide subpanels from the DetailView of Modules?

[ingo.jaeckel]

hello,

i created several modules including a contract module. it has several relationships to other modules. for example you can add documents and products to the contract.

now i want to hide the subpanels that sugarcrm automatically displays when i open the detail view of the contract module.
i would like to use a upgrade safe way. i am using the latest sugarcrm 5.0.0{b|c|d}.

with regards - ingo

Hi, Ingo.

Look at the folders:
modules/YourContractModule/metadata/subpaneldefs.php
custom/Extension/modules/YourContractModule/Ext/Layoutdefs/layoutdefs.ext.php

Changes in the first script is not upgrade safe, but in the second one is. So you just have to comment the array elements related to the subpanels you want to hide.

Cheers

hello,

thank you very much for your fast reply.

i do not have the files you mentioned:

• modules/YourContractModule/metadata/subpaneldefs.php
• custom/Extension/modules/YourContractModule/Ext/Layoutdefs/layoutdefs.ext.php

however i have a file custom/Extension/modules/<NameOfModule>/Ext/Layoutdefs/<NameOfPackage>.php that contained several layout_defs definitions. i commented all of them out.

<?php
//$layout_defs[<NameOfModule]["subpanel_setup"]["documents"] = array (
//  'order' => 100,
//  'module' => 'Documents',
//  'subpanel_name' => 'ForContractType',
//  'get_subpanel_data' => 'documents',
//  'add_subpanel_data' => 'Documents_idb',
//  'title_key' => 'lbl_documents',
//);
?>

i even created a custom/Extension/modules/<NameOfModule>/Ext/Layoutdefs/layoutdefs.ext.php.php file with the same content and cleared the cache..

but still no effect.

Could you please tell what are the files under custom/Extension/modules/<NameOfModule>/Ext/Layoutdefs/.
