Is it possible to make Sugar Dashboard Uneditable for Regular Users?
Hi Nick Gamora
yes it is possible, you need to customize the dashboard-headerpane view;
e.g.
If you want remove the edit button from metadata you should customize the initialize function to overwrite the buttons
Like this:
....
initialize: function(options) {
this._super("initialize", [options]);
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type') != "admin" ){
this.meta.buttons[0].buttons = _.filter(this.meta.buttons[0].buttons, function(obj){ return obj.name != 'edit_button'; });
}
}
...
Or if you need to show the buttons and prevent the edit action you need to customize the editClicked function.
e.g.
editClicked: function(evt) {
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type') != "admin" ){
// here you can show an alert
app.alert.show('message-id', {
level: 'error',
title: 'You aren't admin'
});
}
else{
this._super("editClicked", [evt]);
}
}
Thank You for the answer, I'm new to working with Sugar 7 dashlet, can you tell which file it is necessary to register?
You need to create a new file in custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane.js and put the code after that you need repair the instance: https://support.sugarcrm.com/Knowledge_Base/Troubleshooting/Running_Quick_Repair_and_Rebuild/index.html
I`m sorry, but I does not see any changes or differens in the My Dashbord or My Legasy Dashbord in both cases(Regular User or Administrator). I user Repair, I use developer mode (or not developer, no difference what), but I does not understand what it is not working.
({
editClicked: function(evt) {
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type') != "admin" ){
// here you can show an alert
app.alert.show('message-id', {
level: 'error',
title: "You aren't admin"
});
} else{
this._super("editClicked", [evt]);
}
}
})
Hi
you need to extend the view
({
extendsFrom:'DashboardHeaderpaneView',
editClicked: function(evt) {
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type') != "admin" ){
// here you can show an alert
app.alert.show('message-id', {
level: 'error',
title: "You aren't admin"
});
} else{
this._super("editClicked", [evt]);
}
}
})
It's possible that you need validate the current module
...
if( app.user.get('type') != "admin" and this.module=="Home")
...
Try use your code:
({
extendsFrom:'DashboardHeaderpaneView',
initialize: function(options) {
this._super("initialize", [options]);
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type')!= "admin" && this.module=="Home"){
this.meta.buttons[0].buttons = _.filter(this.meta.buttons[0].buttons, function(obj){ return obj.name != 'edit_button'; });
}
},
editClicked: function(evt) {
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type')!="admin" && this.module=="Home"){
// here you can show an alert
app.alert.show('message-id', {
level: 'error',
title: "You aren't admin"
});
} else{
this._super("editClicked", [evt]);
}
}
})
but do not see anything changes after rapair and rebuilt. What I do wrong?
Hi
Where you put the customization file?
this file should be in custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane/
and remember execute a quick repair
regards
In your previous reply you said that this is correct file
You need to create a new file in custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane.js
but now I see that it is
custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane/
so do you mean custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane/dashboard-headerpane.js or custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane.js ?
Sorry, put the file in custom/clients/base/views/dashboard-headerpane/dashboard-headerpane.js
regards
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!
What can I do for hide create button too??
What can I do for hide create button too??
Hi Nick Gamora
you can play with the metadata to hide any button
In your custom code use a debugger to stop the execution and then open the developer tools of chrome to see the buttons metadata
e.g.
initialize: function(options) {
this._super("initialize", [options]);
// validate user
if( app.user.get('type')!= "admin" && this.module=="Home"){
debugger; // this debugger stops the execution
this.meta.buttons[0].buttons = _.filter(this.meta.buttons[0].buttons, function(obj){ return obj.name != 'edit_button'; });
}
},
in the console of chrome execute:
this.meta.buttons
this instruction will display the metadata of buttons now you need add a line in your code to hide the button that you want similar to:
this.meta.buttons = _.filter(this.meta.buttons, function(obj){ return obj.name != '<buttonName>'; });
Regards
Thank you, Cesar!
I made this row
this.meta.buttons[0].buttons = _.filter(this.meta.buttons[0].buttons, function(obj){ return obj.name!='edit_button' && obj.name!='add_button'; });
and button is hide!!
