I'm sure I read somewhere that it was possible to implement custom templates specific to individual case types, in the same way that you can implement custom templates in relation to different subtypes of contact. But I now can't find any reference to it. Did I dream it? Or can someone provide the right directory structure for the templates to be implemented for only one specific case type?

Thanks

Nick

You can however set custom groups for case types, are you refering to templates as the Smarty .tpl file? Or are you not a developer and hoping to add some data on a specific custom type?

Thanks, guys. Hershel's suggestion sounds interesting, and might be the solution.

Erik, yes, I'm talking about .tpl files, specifically the one at /CRM/Case/Audit/Report.tpl

We basically have one case type where the printed report needs to include references to family members, whereas for other case types it doesn't. It's more complex than that, because there's also some custom data to include, but you get the idea.

Hershel, if we followed your approach, would it imply having a custom /CRM/Case/Audit/ that was essentially nothing more than a switch statement with a series of includes for sub-templates? And can the sub-templates live in the same directory or do we need to put them somewhere lese?

Nick, yes and yes.

Erik, yes, right.

I'm just a yes-man I guess.

Thanks for your suggestions, we do now have custom audit reports being printed for two different case types. Easy when you know how...
