Today I performed a new test installation 7.11.12 and just installed DE Language pack after SuiteCRM clean installation and not performed the country drop down customisation.
I think this is because of the country drop down customisation.
When I check thoroughly I see that only the Edit View is changed and List View is adjusted and Filter touched(but not working) but detail view is not customised/explained in the article. So I need to find a way to correct this with customisation.
As the Country information is still not a dropdown after so many years, this is not a bug from SuiteCRM base but a bug after Country DropDown customisation applied.
Just one more vote for having Country as a dropdown.
Today I had some time to look for it but see that DetailView.tpl has some different and very basic HTML data formatting/generating code and not like EditView. I guess it gets some data from view.php of module and it gets something from Smarty of module(accounts ie). In EditView it works on country itself in DetailView it works on complete address something like prepared before DetailView, if I’m not wrong.
I need some more info to achive, do you have some recommendation for that ?
It makes sense that the Detail view is simpler, it can just use the aggregated field.
I am a bit confused about what needs to be achieved in the Detail view, can you please explain a little better?
it’s probably just a matter of finding the place in the code where the view is being set up, where the data is being prepared with Smarty->assign before being rendered with the tpl.
