Filter on search (profile): how to get only organisations ?
April 15, 2008, 12:21:45 am
Hi,

I've found how to filter the search results on tags
/civicrm/profile?reset=1&gid=1&force=1&tag[29]=1

or on a country
/civicrm/profile?reset=1&gid=1&force=1&country-Primary=1020

But I haven't been able to filter to get only organisations,

/civicrm/profile?reset=1&gid=1&force=1&contact_type=Organization
(this doesn't work and you get Individuals and Households as well)

What is the proper syntax ?

the get params are for only the search fields that are exposed in the profile.

I dont think we expose organization types, hence i dont think setting contact_type=Organization (or household or individual) will work without some additional hacks

You'll need to hack the code to get this behavior. Your best bet is to check out CRM/Profile/Page/Listings.php at line 300 or so. You'll need to store the value in the session for future requests etc

OR - you can create a Group w/ the Organizations you want to expose in this profile search - and then use the Profile 'Advanced Setting' --> Limit Listings to Group.

(If you want to expose all current and future contacts of type = Organization to this profile, then use a Smart Group created by searching for all contacts whose type is Organization from Find Contacts.)

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion to limit to a group to filter on org. Great idea !
