Custom Date field "range Search" does not show in "Popup Search"

Hi Asaf,

This is a known defect. However, there is a workaround mentioned in the defect description. To do this, go to line 656 of ./include/SugarFields/Fields/Base/SugarFieldBase.php and change it to this:

return !empty($vardef['enable_range_search']) && !empty($_REQUEST['action']); // && $_REQUEST['action']!='Popup';

Note that the last portion of the line is now commented out. Run a QRR and this should now be working. It's important to note that this is NOT upgrade-safe. You can try redefining this function in the custom folder to see if the changes would work in an upgrade-safe way. If you try that, let me know the results.

I hope this helps!

Thank you for the response.

i also tried that already and read the solution here (and even commented on the response):

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18738289/date-field-do-not-display-dropdown-in-popup-of-sugarcrm

it does change the field to be a range search, but when pushing "Search" button the date field is completely ignored.

like it doesn't exist and still present all records.

i also changed the post above. i managed to make the date field change to ranged search but in my solution also, the date is ignored completely when searched.

Hi Asaf,

Again, this solution is NOT upgrade-safe and these changes will be lost if/when you upgrade. That said, you can try adding the following at line 295 of include/Popups/PopupSmarty.php:

if(file_exists('custom/modules/'.$this->module.'/metadata/SearchFields.php')) {
    require('custom/modules/'.$this->module.'/metadata/SearchFields.php');
}

Let me know if that helps!
