Hi

I'm a little new to this area - so would appreciate any pointers
A client wants to add a specific relationship to the Contact Summary Tab,
Basically its a community theatre - they list actors, and some have agents and some dont and they want that easy to see.
So I have Actors as Contact Type: Individual, and the Agents are Sub type of Organisations,
And then the relationship between them is "Agent is / Agent of" - which is relationship_type_id=15

So I have added the relationship and to which agent on the summary tab - right hand column - above Where tags are listed. No problems here - I found an older post Here:
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,23684.msg99564.html#msg99564
Where PetedNZ helfully provides an example - and I used that code as the basis -
to over-ride the Summary.tpl - And all is working from the Individual side - The code I have ended up with is:

{crmAPI entity="relationship" action="get" var="relationships" contact_id=$contactId relationship_type_id=15 }
{if $relationships.values}
{foreach from=$relationships.values item=rel}
<div class="crm-label" id="rel_{$rel.cid}">

<td class="label">{$rel.relation}</td></div>
<div class="crm-content">                     
<a href="{crmURL p='civicrm/contact/view' q="reset=1&cid=`$rel.cid`"}" title="{$rel.display_name}">
{$rel.display_name}</a>
</div>
                         
{/foreach}
{/if}
On my example Actor - the 'Agent is' displays in the right column, as does the Clickable name of the Agency in the right .

The problem I have is that when I click through to the Agent - The Agent ends up with a line by line list of all their 'Agent of' connections - which I don't want, as some agents have multiple actors so that would get out of control. So I only need this to display in individuals summarys, not the organisation side of the relationship.

So my issue is how to limit this to the Individual summarys, not the Agent / Organisation side.
I figure I either have to filter using parameter contact_type.id=1 - which I cant quite work out
Or filter using parameter relationship_type.name_a_b="Agent is"

I have had a play with the API explorer and had a try with chaining the ContactType entity but no success so far.
Any pointers?

Thanks

I think your api call should say "contact_id_a" not "contact_id" as the param.

scrubba why not submit a PR back to help improve their extension
