Customize Househould form
July 12, 2011, 02:33:11 am
Hi,

is there a way to customize the household form and leave the individual and organisation form as they are.

What I want to do is disable plenty of stuff from households like the Adresse, Communication preferences and some fields from the contact details (like email, phone,...)

I found the following article in the Wiki (http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC40/Customize+Built-in%2C+Profile%2C+Contribution+and+Event+Registration+Screens) but I had no success with it - is it maybe best just to hide them via CSS?

any help would be awesome
thanks werner

Can you elaborate on "but I had no success with it"

you will need to hide those elements conditionally based on the existence of household fields. Might be easiest to do this via jQuery hide of various div's if u detect that this is a household form (maybe check for existence of an element with id = household_name?)

I found a way to use the Smarty engine with the following code:

{if $contactType  eq 'Household' }
   do whatever
{else}
        make the form for persons and organisations
{/if}

or just

{if $contactType  != 'Household' }
        make the form for persons and organisations
{/if}

used it at civi_customtmpl/CRM/Contact/Form/Edit/Email.tpl
