Change Label for Built In Contact Type
December 17, 2009, 06:35:01 pm
Hi all, logged into the 3.1 sandbox for the first time and headed directly to Contact Types to see if I could change the label for the Built In Contact Type of "Organization" to "Business".

Success message "The Contact Type 'Business' has been saved."

But - the Contact Type turned red and cannot be found on Search or Add contacts...

What do I do next?

Adding - I thought I would then try to change it back to "Organization" in case it was confusing to anyone else using the sandbox... Still red and Organization not available in Search or Add...
oops! Did I break it ;D

Hi ,

Actually its a bug introduced in v3.1.beta2.
You can fix this locally by applying following patch at CRM/Contact/BAO/ContactType.php at line no. 545
Code: [Select]
         $contactType->id        = CRM_Utils_Array::value( 'id', $params );
-        $contactType->is_active = CRM_Utils_Array::value( 'is_active', $params, 0 );
+        if ( CRM_Utils_Array::value('parent_id', $params) ) {
+            $contactType->is_active = CRM_Utils_Array::value( 'is_active', $params, 0 );
+        }


This will defiantly get fixed in next version.
Thanks a lot
-Shailesh
