Can I Disallow Certain Contact Types in Groups?
June 06, 2014, 07:23:02 am
I have a few groups that I want to make sure are used only for individuals; however, people in my organization keep accidentally putting households into those groups. Is there a way for me to disable certain contact types in certain groups?

I am not averse to code hacking if need be.

Hi Jeff,
you would have to customize to do that, but it would not be too difficult. You could use a validateForm hook to validate the contact type for certain groups?
Check here for the validateForm hook: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/hook_civicrm_validateForm
