The SuiteCRM Guide

Show and Tell
1

I’ve been working on video tutorials and whilst doing this, I’ve been adding the contents to my website as well:

It aims at the UI / admin / concept side of things, rather than SuiteCRM development.
I’m curious about your feedback - what do you think about the guite so far and what’s missing?

That’s very informative and I liked that you have attached your video tutorials too.

You can make the blog/ video on …

  • the administration page(Like all those options and how to use them).
  • config, config_override files.
  • the log files.
  • how to make UI modification/customization.
  • SuiteCRM add-ons.
  • logic hooks and how to code/config them.
  • folder structures, content and what it does.
  • language packages and how to install.
  • scheduled tasks, what are they and how to config.
  • APIs and how to use/configure them.

Danke Bastian für die Videos. Auch wenn Ich SuiteCRM schon seit der ersten Migration von SugarCRM :slight_smile: nutze habe ich doch einige wertvolle Tipps erhalten.

@BastianHammer can you make a video explaining all the modules and how to use them?

I realized many users do not know the meaning of modules and how to use them in the sequence. :melting_face: :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Sounds more like a 10-hour workshop than a 10-min tutorial :wink:
But yes, I’ve got some already:

and one coming up next week …

And I’ve added the idea to my to-do list :slight_smile:

Haha that’s true. Maybe you can create a course. Thank you! If I get more ideas for videos/blogs, I will share here.

Actually … for the courses:

Additionally, the modules and how to use them is a good idea, I see this in many projects and inquiries I get as well.

More ideas:

  1. make.com and n8n.io integration with SuiteCRM.

  2. Custom EntryPoints and how to get relate fields data.

  3. Installation and integration of Grafana with SuiteCRM.

  4. How to upgrade SuiteCRM

Good timing - for that one, I’m already recording a whole series :slight_smile:
Thanks for the ideas.

Thanks for the ideas!
All those quick and easy things :wink:

But yes, I’ve already worked on point 2 & 3.
For SAML, will test this with an IDP - from the forum issues here and from my recent SAML involved projects, the issue was mostly Entra ID related.

This is pretty good idea :light_bulb: :grinning_face:

Generating a Google Maps link from a SuiteCRM record’s address

  • Video about what’s new in v7.15 ESR.

Thank you for video!

Thanks :slight_smile:
Yes, it has come up multiple times in different projects and is fairly simple.

The first one is only server related?
If you’ve got snapshots, just restore the last one. With a DB Dump + zip it’s restoring this manually?

The 2nd one is already out there?
