Version 7.7.1 Default Project View is Gantt Chart, How to Change

đź’¬ General Discussion

How can we change the default view for projects back to DetailView from Gantt when click in list view or after saving the project? It is a cool idea, but doesn’t work well in our organization.

Thanks,

OK, I have done this but it isn’t upgrade safe, and I’m not knowledgeable enough to make it upgrade safe… here are the changes:

/modules/Project/tpls/ListViewGeneric.tpl

This was view_GanttChart before…

{capture assign=action}{if $act}{$act}{else}DetailView{/if}{/capture}

/modules/Project/metadata/editviewdefs.php

 'buttons_footer' => 
        array (
          0 => 
          array (
		  // ADS Changed to DetailView... not sure this one is necessary
            'customCode' => '<input title="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_TITLE}" id ="SAVE_HEADER" accessKey="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_KEY}" class="button primary" onclick="SUGAR.projects.fill_invitees();document.EditView.action.value=\'Save\'; document.EditView.return_action.value=\'DetailView\'; {if isset($smarty.request.isDuplicate) && $smarty.request.isDuplicate eq "true"}document.EditView.return_id.value=\'\'; {/if} formSubmitCheck();"type="button" name="button" value="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_LABEL}">',		  
//            'customCode' => '<input title="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_TITLE}" id ="SAVE_HEADER" accessKey="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_KEY}" class="button primary" onclick="SUGAR.projects.fill_invitees();document.EditView.action.value=\'Save\'; document.EditView.return_action.value=\'view_GanttChart\'; {if isset($smarty.request.isDuplicate) && $smarty.request.isDuplicate eq "true"}document.EditView.return_id.value=\'\'; {/if} formSubmitCheck();"type="button" name="button" value="{$APP.LBL_SAVE_BUTTON_LABEL}">',
          ),

/modules/Project/Save.php
Watch out for this one because you have to change the action and the word “project_id” to “record”.

if ($sugarbean->is_template){
    header("Location: index.php?action=ProjectTemplatesDetailView&module=Project&record=$return_id&return_module=Project&return_action=ProjectTemplatesEditView");
}
else{
	//customize default retrun view to make it to redirect to GanttChart view
	// ADS changed this back to DetailView 
	$_REQUEST['return_url'] = "index.php?module=Project&action=DetailView&record=" . $return_id;
	// $_REQUEST['return_url'] = "index.php?module=Project&action=view_GanttChart&project_id=" . $return_id;
    handleRedirect($return_id,'Project');
}
