Hi there,

I'm trying to change the status selection options on the Contribution Search Page.
Right now it is possible to select the status 'Completed', 'Pending' or 'Cancelled'.
However, we would like the possibility to also select 'In Progress' as status.

How could this be done? I am afraid I still don't get how these forms are build.
In templates\CRM\Contribute\Form|Search\Common.tpl I found this:

<td class="label">{ts}Status{/ts}</td>
<td>{$form.contribution_status.html}</td>

But I cannot find the file which defines which statuses should be shown? Where is this contribution_status.html being constructed?

Thanks lobo, I will read the architecture.

Good to know that In progress will become obsolete.
We decided to use it because we needed an extra step between Pending and Completed. Why?

- We do an offline contribution and the payments status will be set to Pending.
- We debit the money from the participant's bank account (one-time deposit) and put its status on In progress.
- The participant can withdraw this debit for the time of 1 month. If this hasn't been done after 1 month, we change the Payment status into Completed.

I think we have to find another way to keep track this.

This is an old topic but seems to still be in effect. In the search page for contribution (and advanced search) I only get to choose 'Completed', 'Pending' or 'Cancelled'. Not my own specified statuses. I want to search for (for example) my own status 'Old debt' but can't.

If you add a custom status you should also be enable to search for contribution with that status. Do I need to use the search builder for this?

You were right!

It's hardcoded to remove status id 5 and 6 from the option list because the coder thinks those are only used for recurring contribution/pledges. Maybe that is a good thing for many people I don't know. But we use the contribute module for regual payments and are using the In Progress for payments that are only partly paid (which is quite common to do by the members of my client org). And we may also want to use the Overdue and a custom status.

I just removed the these two lines to make it work:
unset( $statusValues['5']);
unset( $statusValues['6']);

Then In Progress and Overdue shows up and the search is performed ok. Thanks a lot Lobo!

This was not an issue in 4.2.9 but having just upgraded to 4.3.5 I can no longer see In Progress or Overdue. We use this for membership payments that are not fully paid since there is no easy way of allowing a part paid membership and then be able to add new contributions to it. So having upgraded to 4.3.5 I have to see why this issue remains and from what I can tell the code still contains the unset statements as stated. Why has this change been made?
