Hi everybody!

I would like to find a file!

In the module "settings->mail merge templates->new template"
there is a drop down list with

- leads
- accounts
- contacts
- trouble tickets

I would like add an option to this list so i have to find the form in all the files of vTiger. The problem is i can't find this file. If you have any idea or suggestion it would be great!

ps: sorry if my english is not perfect, i'm from belgium :oops:

I am not sure that I understand your intention correctly but I do not think it is a good idea.

Here is why: These drop down lists are used to find the substitutes (e.g. $contacts-lastname$) which are related to the modules and which are different for leads, accounts etc.
Therefore, you can't make form which is suitable for all modules.

Thanks for the quiclkly answer Balduin!

In fact I would like to add the feature "document merge" to the Potential module because I have to create a document in relation with that module. I think it almost works but now i have to find the form. You know what I mean?

But maybe you have right and it's a waste of time :?
It could be easier to add fields in the Account module.
what do you think about that?

I have no idea what you intend to achieve.

hi hairpriz,

if i get it right, you want mail merge creation in the potential module the same way it is for example in contacts module...

around line 99 of Contacts/DetailView.php you have:

<code>

if(isPermitted("Contacts","Merge",'') == 'yes')

{

$smarty->assign("MERGEBUTTON","permitted");

require_once('include/utils/UserInfoUtil.php');

$wordTemplateResult = fetchWordTemplateList("Contacts");

$tempCount = $adb->num_rows($wordTemplateResult);

$tempVal = $adb->fetch_array($wordTemplateResult);

for($templateCount=0;$templateCount<$tempCount;$templateCount++)

{

$optionString[$tempVal["templateid"]]=$tempVal["filename"];

$tempVal = $adb->fetch_array($wordTemplateResult);

}

$smarty->assign("TEMPLATECOUNT",$tempCount);

$smarty->assign("WORDTEMPLATEOPTIONS",$app_strings['LBL_SELECT_TEMPLATE_TO_MAIL_MERGE']);

$smarty->assign("TOPTIONS",$optionString);

}

</code>

then for sure you'll have to modify some files in Smarty/templates/ ...

hope it sounds good as a first hint :-)

ciao
carloz
