Profile Listings - Menu Fnctions
July 16, 2010, 01:48:47 am
When a Profile is used to Search and generate Listings of contacts, is there anyway to access any of the Civi Admin menu functions, such as "Export Contacts" or "Send Email to Contacts" for the set of records retrieved? We want to give our Contact Administrators restricted functionality/data access without having to work through the full CIvi Admin Interface...

No, it is not possible to do any batch actions.

May be you can give them limited permission or use ACL's

Ok...
The Civi Profiles have allowed us to create a very flexible Search functionality and it would have been extremely useful to be able to extend the actions carried out on the Listings generated.

Certainly is worth consideration.. We'll see if we have the internal capability to do such a Mod.. Can you point to the relevant information/guidelines for a customization effort of this nature? (in terms of Civi's "hooks")...

Also, as a matter of interest what would be involved (procedure, estimates) of sponsoring such a feature change through the core team..

Rgds,
Mm
