How do I create a new "action" to use with contacts
June 05, 2009, 09:36:20 am
I would like to create a new custom action for use in the "more actions" pull-down list after searching for a set of contacts.

I uploaded the PHP for the action to: <my joomla root folder>/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Contact/Form/Task

But I do not see this as a choice in the "more actions" pull-down list after searching for a set of contacts. What am I missing? Do I need to "register" the new action?

I am using Joomla 1.5.10 and CiviCRM 2.2.2.

Thanks,
Sarah
