Can you please advise how i change all these drop downs back to buttons.

See the screenshot, after upgrading… lost all the buttons to drop downs. I imagine there is an ez fix?

You will have a system-wide setting for the same.

Admin->System settings->Display actions within menus

I think this is related : https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/pull/6533 and I did exactly what was suggested in each module i wanted the buttons to be dropdowns :

Override a subpanel definition (example custom/Extension/modules/Leads/Ext/Layoutdefs/myCustomization.php)
Add this line:

$layout_defs['Leads']['subpanel_setup']['history']['flat'] = 1

Repair and Rebuild
Go to Leads module
See only the History module now has its buttons displayed not in a dropdown

so for my leads module i did this :

I then had to fix my compose email button :frowning: using css :

/* removing email button /
div.action_buttons #Activities_composeemail_button{
display: none;
}
div.action_buttons .button
{
margin-right:3px !important;
}
/ END */
div.action_buttons .email-link{
padding: 5px 13px;
line-height: initial;
height: initial;
text-transform: capitalize;
background-color: #378cbe !important;
color: #f5f5f5;
border-radius: 3px;
}

div.action_buttons .email-link{
cursor: pointer;
}
/* removing email button */

not sure if it’ll be the same for you but i added the above code to my custom theme style.css

Honestly its a couple lines of code in a custom area that if it messes anything up you could just delete the file just to change the dropdowns to flat. I could help you with this and if you want to test it outside of your production, if you’re able to … duplicate your production onto a dev area and test it out there.

Lisa, what is your version of SuiteCRM now? Is it 7.11.5?

NICE WORK! I think this is the css that you’ll need.

div.action_buttons .email-link{
padding: 5px 13px;
line-height: initial;
height: initial;
text-transform: capitalize;
background-color: #F08377 !important;
color: #FFF;
border-radius: 3px;
}

Hi billlee,

I have tried the same instructions to get separate buttons in subpanels for SuiteCRM 7.12.5 with no success.
Is it a matter of version?
