What I love and miss most about SugarPRO v11 -> SugarENT v14 and how do I get around what I miss?

After falling way behind (Beware!) and a challenging year of upgrades (OS, MySQL, PHP, Sugar...) we are finally caught up and went from Sugar Professional v11 to Sugar Enterprise v14 on site.

Two things I LOVE the most compared to v11:

  • Sidecar Users module
  • Progress bar on QRR

Two things I REALLY MISS about v11:

  • The ability to set a local PWD to impersonate my users (our users use LDAP)
  • The ability to set obnoxious colors for the toolbar to color-code my envs and REALLY know if I'm in PRD or TST or DEV.
    The Watermark just doesn't do it for me and some admin pages don't show it anyways.

Anyone have any suggestions for customizations I can make to make these last two work?

    You can still customise the colour of the navigation bar just the CSS class names would have changed when it moved to be down the left side of the page. On my playground system I have the below which works though I only bothered setting it up for light mode as I don't use dark mode so you would have to add more to make it work for both.

    @devActive: #424D64;
    @devActiveLight: #676e7c;
    @devGreyLight: #e5e5e5;
    .sidebar-nav {
    background: @devRed;
    }
    .sidebar-nav-item-group {
    background: @devRed;
    }
    body.sugar-light-theme,
    .sugar-light-theme {
    color-scheme: light;
    --tab-background-hover-color: @devActiveLight;
    --sidebar-nav-background: @devRed;
    --sidebar-nav-background-hover: @devActive;
    }
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

    Alternatively I guess you could change your User profile on your dev system to be in dark mode (or whatever the inverse of your production is) which you can change in your User under the Advanced tab using the Appearance field if that suffices.

    For the password stuff if it is just your local dev system you can use the built in symphony commands in `./bin/sugarcm` to change a users password.

    I hope that helps
