Is there a way to change the default list page when you click on a entity form to a custom search page? Something like google ( a text box with a search button) to return the results of the list base on the search criteria?
for example,
from this:
to a search page.
Sorry you can't. This page is not customizable. But the dashboards are. You can make a custom dashbard with a single iframe and it can be your default page.
Yes you cannot modify the design of this list page. Dashboard & custom html webresource/iframe is fine.
But I recommend you to customize this list page itself to look like what you want, atleast close to similar CRM UX. First deactivate all the views for that particular entity except Active & Quick find. Rename the system view “Active Details” into “Search” & modify the filter condition to include something like createdon = tomorrow. Hence the grid will be empty, you got search box on right to start with. When user search, Quick find view resultset will be rendered in grid.

I am trying to redirect the Taxonomy term path/url to a custom panels/page, I found several posts from around the web about that and tried to implement the instructions but they did not work and I am doing something wrong. For example I tried what I thought was the closest to my situation found here and in the following quote but it did not work and the Taxonomy views was already disabled in the first place on my end.
Disable the Taxonomy term view.
Set the path on the panels page to /taxonomy/term/%.
Clear cache.
View page at taxonomy/term/{tid}.
I verified that this also works with URL aliases.
Can someone provide clear directions for the following
Pages/Panel screenshot
What do I enter in,
Page information
Page parameters
Page access
Variants: contexts
Variants: selection criteria
I've tried all kinds of different settings ("/taxonomy/term/{tid}", "/taxonomy/term/%", "/taxonomy/term/{taxonomy_term}", "/taxonomy/term/112") and changing Home>>Administration>>Configuration>>Search and metadata>>url alias settings but every link just goes back to the default taxonmy term page.
I solved the issue. If any body needs the answer here it is.
To change the page/layout of a taxonomy term first go to page manager (Home >> Administration >> Structure ).
You might see a page called "Taxonomy Term", that's where you want to start to make changes so click on that. If not you'll have to create on page. Both can be addressed by the following steps.
This example will show you how to create and use different layout for a different term page.
Go to Structure > Pages (/admin/structure/page_manager) and click on Edit button under Taxonomy Term row. On the right side you will see Default
These are variants. The Default variant at the bottom affects all the taxonomy/term pages. All other above variants overrides the Default variant using certain conditions a.k.a "Selection criteria".
Click the Add variant button to add a new variant.
Enter Label for the variant and choose "Panels" under the Type dropdown menu.
Choose "In-place Editor" for a Builder
Choose Layout for the page.
Enter [term:name] for Page title. This token holds the name of your taxonomy term. Now click on the Finish button, you will add block later.
Click on the Selection criteria.
Choose "Request Path" for a condition and click on the "Add condition" button.
Add taxonomy term page url's you wish to override (e.g. taxonomy/term/25).
Go to one of those pages (e.g. taxonomy/term/25) and add blocks.
Note that your variant must be positioned above the variant you override to work properly. Use the Reorder variants button to reorder your variants.
You can repeat this procedure if you wish to target a different terms also or a vocabulary. You can have as many variants you want.
I would kindly ask for your help :) From couple of days I am trying to achieve "linked" custom field in content editor and dropdown in page editor.
Basically I want to have dropdown in page editor and content editor which are responsible for a same thing.
In my c# code i have enums which represent directions. I created custom field which accepts assembly and class with overridden onload method and successfully populate dropdown values in the content editor. So far so good but i have no idea how to create dropdown which will represent the same functionality inside page editor.
So please give me any ideas...
Judging from your reply to my comment you need to think of the following: How is my field value being rendered onto a page?
If you are always using 1 control to do this then you just need to ensure that this control has 2 different rendering modes depending on the Context.PageMode
But as I understand it you want this dropdown to also appear when someone renders your custom field using a <sc:FieldRenderer>. In this case you'll need to look into the RenderField pipeline of Sitecore. There you find a processor called RenderWebEditing. Possibly through some manipulation here you can get your dropdown appear as you wish.
I've custom view on account entity and I want to pass parameters dynamically to that view. When I try to pass parameters as below i got an error. Is there any best way to pass parameter to a view like individual records.

any suggestions

I think that passing dynamically parameters to view is not possible. In this situation you can use advanced find, filters, or create report.
We have a similar requirement: We have a ribbon button, click the button popup a silverlight page, this is a search screen, you can input the search criteria and click search button on that page. The search result will be returned to CRM Home page.(Not the advanced find, it returns the results to CRM home page).
Actually, what we have to do is create the QueryExpression from silverlight, and then convert it to fetch xml query, use this fetch xml query to create a custom view, attach the custom view to home page.
I am creating a maintenance page where I want to select a task using browser UI component. What I want to do specifically is to filter and show only tasks that are not done yet. Can I implement this using browser UI component? Does Exact Synergy Enterprise offer other components for this functionality?
You should create your browser Repository Explorer and use it in browsefield UI component.
Go to System tab, process to Setup tab and under the Repository section click Explorer. Locate your Repository group, enter it, click Browsers tab next to Business components, Functional components, etc.
Click Add and provide Name, Caption, Caption suffix fields. Then write your SQL query in Query field. The structure is:
SELECT <column(s)> FROM <database table> WHERE <column(s)> IS NOT NULL ORDER BY <column>.
Leave the Column info field empty for now. Fill in the Result columns field with column name which will be used as a Browser component result.
Finally, add database table name in the Table list field. Click Save + Edit column info button. Edit column names from a list shown below Information section and fill in Header/Term ID field with title, describing your columns (this will be shown in Browser UI for the front-end user). Click Save and test your newly created browser. If something went wrong, repeat steps from the start. Most of the time problem could be wrongly filled Column info field.
Now go to your ASPX page and add browsername attribute to your browsefield UI component. Doing so will set the browserfield component to your newly created browser component. This is that you want to see in your maintenance page when setting up the browsefield UI component:
<ex:cardfield runat="server" id="cf" caption="Item" captionid="0">
<ex:browsefield runat="server" id="p" browsername="pbr" datasource="bc" />
</ex:cardfield>
Hope this gives you quick idea of what you need to do in order to adjust it to your situation with tasks.
I have created a Sample Module (Admin Side) in Magento.. I managed To created a form and Then Stored the form field values in Database. Now I am trying To create a search view for that. to show me all the values which i have stored in my table. however i am not able to get it. when i press the tab I directly get the form view. I want the search view first and a button there which ll direct me to this form. I want it the same way as it is for product, category or any other module. Do anyone Know How can I do it.
It's called a grid. The process is kind of long to explain here, but if you search online there are a few tutorials that explain how to do it (here's one that I found useful: http://www.webspeaks.in/2010/08/create-admin-backend-module-in-magento.html). Keep in mind that you can also model your own code after core code. If you want to make a grid like the Category grid, then go look in the code how its made.
