Adding Custom JS and CSS to Contacts Create page

I'm a bit new to SugarCRM so I'm looking for some guidance in the right direction. I currently have a sandbox sugar cloud instance that I am attempting to load a custom module in.

I am attempting to add an "address autocomplete" feature to the Contacts record create view. To do this, I need to add some custom css and javascript to the create page that will call an autocomplete API based on user input into an address field.  

I attempted to extend the Record/Create controllers but the module I loaded into the module loader seems to have broken the contact create page. Any help on adding custom js and css to the module create page would be greatly appreciated.

  • Thanks for this recommendation. I will take a look. I am attempting to roll my own integration with a non-google autocomplete service but I'll see if they can point me in the right direction.

  • Hi Dylan,

    In our Add-On AddressHelper we have used Algolia Places but Algolia will stop it in a few months.
    (Our next version is using LocationIQ and will be available as soon as the Doc is being updated).
    They use OpenStreetMap database and offer a free plan.

    You do not need to load their js lib as they provide an API, and we did as André suggested and put our js logic in a custom field.

    Cheers,
    Laurent
