website field
January 11, 2010, 01:14:33 pm
Hello,

I'm a bit confused. I want to create a search profile with some basic fields - display name, image & website including individuals & organisations from a group but this turns out not to be straight forward.

The website field is available as an individual field & as an organisation field but not as a contact field so I can have one or the other. Display name is automatically added but not as a searchable field and I don't seem to be able to add it.

website field should be listed as a contact field and not indiv/organization. if you file an issue and a patch, we can get it included in 3.2

the display name is automatically added for all profiles. adding that as an optional field along with making it searchable would be another good profile addition. Wanna contribute a patch for this too?

It seems to me that around line 745 of CRM_Contact_BAO_Contact an array is defined which says that the home_url is not applicable to household and this is why it doesn't appear to be of type 'contact'. If we agree that households can have websites (which seems reasonable to me) simply removing home_url as highlighted below does it



Code: [Select]
                    //unset the fields, which are not related to their
                    //contact type.
                    $commonValues = array ( 'Individual'   => array( 'household_name','legal_name','sic_code','organization_name' ),
                                            'Household'    => array( 'first_name','middle_name','last_name','job_title',
                                                                     'gender_id','birth_date','organization_name','legal_name',
                                                                     'legal_identifier','sic_code',[b]'home_URL',[/b]'is_deceased',
                                                                     'deceased_date' ),
                                            'Organization' => array( 'first_name','middle_name','last_name','job_title',
                                                                     'gender_id','birth_date','household_name','email_greeting',
                                                                     'email_greeting_custom','postal_greeting',
                                                                     'postal_greeting_custom','is_deceased','deceased_date' )
                                            );

I'm now really confused. I took a look to see the other code in the area and references to  CRM_Contact_DAO_Contact were everywhere - but it doesn't exist. And hasn't for some time.

http://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/CiviCRM/trunk/CRM/Contact/DAO

So, what are the code references below calling?

Code: [Select]
[quote]require_once 'CRM/Contact/DAO/Contact.php';
class CRM_Contact_BAO_Contact extends CRM_Contact_DAO_Contact
                $fields = CRM_Contact_DAO_Contact::import( );[/quote]

the DAO files are generated from the xml files and are not stored in svn

I think this is the same or a related problem: 

When I use the API function civicrm_contact_add to add a new Organization, even though I supply the home_url field it doesn't get saved.

Lobo -- were you suggesting I need to edit an XML file somewhere?

I edited my CRM/Contact/BAO/Contact.php and removed the references to home_url but it didn't help.

If I know where to make the fix I can prepare a patch.

thanks,
Harry

Could you try using home_URL instead of home_url.

Thanks so much... indeed it seemed like a problem with the case in some places in my code.

The data is now being saved OK.
