Upgrade-Safe way to hide subpanels (part 2)

[quarki69]

Dear suite people!

I put my question at the end of an earlier version of the above mentioned thread already, but somehow it disappeared and I did not receive a response.

In the earlier thread, Andy mentioned the following:

I dont think you can remove the defualt relationships in sugar via studio. But you can hide a subpanel in an upgrade safe way by doing this:
For example in the accounts module
Create a new custom php file and add this code[/color]

unset($layout_defs['Accounts']['subpanel_setup']['accounts']);

[color=#0000ff]put the file inside custom/Extension/modules/Accounts/Ext/Layoutdefs/
Then remember to do a repair and rebuild.

[/color]

This is exactly what would solve my problem, :cheer: but unfortunately I am not a PHP professional and I don’t get it to work.

I want to remove the “Members Organisation” subpanel from the “Accounts” module.

So according to the instructions above, I created an empty file called “custom.php” and put the following line in it:

[i]unset($layout_defs['Accounts']['subpanel_setup']['accounts']);[/i]

Then I copied the file to the path mentioned above.

I did a repair and rebuilt, but nothing changed. - I thought, that the default sub panels would now be configurable.
I thought, that I would be able to remove any subpanel from the “Accounts” module now, but I’m not.

What do I have to modify/ change, to make my requirements happen? - Any hint is highly appreciated! Thank you very very much!

I understand you doesn’t need to enter these , because that’s invalid code in PHP.

Also, for running php, you need to open php tags in the file. You can do this by this way:

<?php your_code ?>

Dear Maqui,

thank you! The “i” in brackets? That might have been created by copy and paste. It is actualy not part of the php file.
OK, I’ll add the start and end qualifiers and give it another try.
