In my admin.php, I have a table and one of the columns is Status which gives only 2 options, Open or Close.
The below is in my admin.php
array(
'name' => 'complete',
'header'=>'Status',
'value' => '($data->complete == 0) ? Yii::t(\'app\', \'Open\') : Yii::t(\'app\', \'Close\')',
'filter' => array('0' => Yii::t('app', 'Open'), '1' => Yii::t('app', 'Close')),
),
I want it to show only the Open condition instead of everything. What can I add into the code?
If you want to show by default only the rows that are still open (not completed), you can simply go to the controller in the admin action and add:
$model->complete=0;
That should be placed just after defining the model and before assigning attributes from $_GET, so it can be overwritten if user choses other option.

Iam trying and not finding a way to load the value from a field and generate a select_from_array based on its range.
For example:
I have 2 select box
Brand -> loads -> Model (using backpack field types, and its working good)
`'type' => 'select2_from_ajax',
'name' => 'camera_model_id',
'entity' => 'camera_model',
'attribute' => 'name',
'data_source' => url('camera-brands'),
'placeholder' => 'Selecione o Modelo',
'minimum_input_length' => 0,
'dependencies' => ['camera_brand_id'],`
But, after the user selects this last selectBox, I need that another field was modified
`'name' => 'channel',
'label' => "Canal da Câmera",
'type' => 'select2_from_array',
'options' => ['' => '',
'01' => '01',
'02' => '02', ...`
So, the options could be filled with the maximum of the field I registered in the Model field database.
Is it possible? or maybe another approach to achieve the solution?
Thanks in advance!
To have an input that depends on the value of another input, you can make both your fields select2_from_ajax.
That way:
you will have the value of all inputs in the controller (the controller that returns the ajax results; then you can return a filtered set of results depending on how the form is filled so far - CategoryController::index() in the documentation example);
you can use the "dependencies" attribute on the selec2_from_ajax fields, so that when one field is reset, both are;
I hope the answer helps someone. Cheers!
I tried to search this but couldn't find any. When creating a custom product attribute with select type programmatically, Magento always assigns eav/entity_attribute_source_table as the source model.
There are 2 issues with this default source model:
I can't auto populate the field with data taken programmatically from somewhere else other than have to type the data list manually one by one.
Although I have specified the "default" or "default_value" (I can see in the database that the value is there), the field is still showing empty as the first line.
How I can change the default source_model to my own source model for select type?
Thank you
The key you are looking for is to pass a source value in your SQL setup. Make sure your $installer is an EAV setup object.
You would do the following in your setup script:
$installer = $this;
$installer->starSetup();
// Setup customer multiselect attribute
$attr = array(
'backend' => 'eav/entity_attribute_backend_array',
'input' => 'multiselect',
'label' => 'Permissions',
'note' => 'Used for group-based frontend permissions.',
'required' => false,
'sort_order' => '1000',
'source' => 'eav/entity_attribute_source_table', // Change it here
'user_defined' => true
);
$installer->addAttribute('customer', 'permissions', $attr);
// Add options for permissions
$options = array(
'attribute_id' => $installer->getAttributeId('customer', 'permissions'),
'value' => array(
'place_order' => array('Can Place Orders'),
'view_catalog' => array('Can View the Catalog'),
)
);
$installer->addAttributeOption($options);
$installer->endSetup();
Utimately, I believe the source model can be anything that provides a toOptionArray() function.
There is a great example of this in Mage_Customer, installer: mysql4-upgrade-1.5.9.9-1.6.0.0.php
In it, a country source model is being assigned to customer address attribute country_id.
$installer->updateAttribute(
'customer_address',
'country_id',
'source_model',
'customer/entity_address_attribute_source_country'
);
Change this to catalog_product, your attribute, and source model.
You set the source type as shown below.
'source' => 'categoryattr/attribute_source_type',
and create the file Attribute\Source\Type.php and the create the options and set the value 0 for default option.
$this->_options[] = array (
'label' => 'Select Category',
'value' => '0'
);
please refer below for file structure and step by step explanation.

I´m currently developing a custom module for magento thats going to list employees.
I have figured out almost everything. The only thing I got left is how the selected values is going to be highlighted.
The problem I´m having is for the backend.
I got 2 tabs per employee, one for employee data and one tab for magento categories.
1 employee can have 1 or more categories.
The database table that the categories are stored in are a non-eav table.
So my question is
What in a multiselect determines which values are selected? As it is now, only one value is selected.
I think you can do this by simply passing in an array of the id's to be selected into the 'value' attribute of the field being added for the multiselect in the _prepareForm() method. Something like the following.
$fieldset->addField('category_id', 'multiselect', array(
'name' => 'categories[]',
'label' => Mage::helper('cms')->__('Store View'),
'title' => Mage::helper('cms')->__('Store View'),
'required' => true,
'values' => Mage::getSingleton('mymodule/mymodel')->getMymodelValuesForForm(),
'value' => array(1,7,10),
));
The id of the form element (e.g. category_id) must not be an attribute in your model, otherwise when the form values get set with $form->setValues() later on, the attribute value will be overwritten.
I normally store multiple selections as a text column separated by commas much like most magento modules handles stores which requires a slightly different approach as shown below.
In the form block for the tab with the multiselect, you firstly define the element to be displayed like so in the _prepareForm() method. You then get the values from the model and set put them into the form data.
protected function _prepareForm()
{
...
$fieldset->addField('store_id', 'multiselect', array(
'name' => 'stores[]',
'label' => Mage::helper('cms')->__('Store View'),
'title' => Mage::helper('cms')->__('Store View'),
'required' => true,
'values' => Mage::getSingleton('adminhtml/system_store')->getStoreValuesForForm(false, true),
));
...
if ( Mage::getSingleton('adminhtml/session')->getMymodelData() )
{
$data = Mage::getSingleton('adminhtml/session')->getMymodelData();
} elseif ( Mage::registry('mymodel_data') ) {
$data = Mage::registry('mymodel_data')->getData();
}
$data['store_id'] = isset($data['stores']) ? explode(',', $data['stores']) : array();
$form->setValues($data);
}
I normally store the selected stores (categories as in your case) in the main model as a text column and comma separated values of ids, hence the explode.
In the controller for for the edit action, I put the model being edited into the mage registry so we can load it and it's values in the step above.
Mage::register('mymodel_data', $model);
Thanks for answering.
This is how my field looks like:
$fieldset->addField('npn_CatID', 'multiselect', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('employeelist')->__('Kategori'),
'class' => 'required-entry',
'required' => true,
'name' => 'npn_CatID',
'values' => $data,
'value' => array(3,5)
));
npn_CatID is the value in my db where the category id is saved.
I have tried to change the name and field ID but cant get it working.
When its the field id is like above ONE value is selected and its the last one inserted for the chosen employee
My data array looks likes
array(array('value' => '1', 'label' => 'USB'), array('value' => '2', 'label' => 'Memories'))
When using a cms page in magento I sometimes need an empty content section. Most times this is for my homepage. But magento forces me to put something in content before it can be saved.
Is there a way to get magento to allow empty cms page content?
You can use an empty div or span
The Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Cms_Page_Edit_Tab_Content::_prepareForm() method dispatches the adminhtml_cms_page_edit_tab_content_prepare_form event. You can observe this event, grab the field from the form object which is passed into the event, and change its required property to false.
This is a quick and dirty fix, you should really override the admin class so you won't lose the change when you next upgrade.
Anyways, in file app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Cms/Page/Edit/Tab/Content.php, in function _prepareForm(), line 82, change:
$contentField = $fieldset->addField('content', 'editor', array(
'name' => 'content',
'style' => 'height:36em;',
'required' => true,
'disabled' => $isElementDisabled,
'config' => $wysiwygConfig
));
to
$contentField = $fieldset->addField('content', 'editor', array(
'name' => 'content',
'style' => 'height:36em;',
'required' => false,
'disabled' => $isElementDisabled,
'config' => $wysiwygConfig
));
add <div></div> inside your empty elements to stop magento cms from removing them
Its not particularly elegant, but you can just enter and/or hide the content via CSS
I'd like to add some new attributes to the admin users in Magento. These users are different than customers (just to make it clear) and it's only possible to set their user/name/lastname/mail/pass, but I'd like to add a few new attributes.
To do so, I guess I can use the addattribute function, but I need to find out which is the id of these admin users. For example, if I want to add a new attribute to a customer, I can use a function like this:
$setup->addAttribute('customer','attribute_id', $attr );
So, in this case, 'customer' is the id for customers. How can I find out which id is used for admin users? (this question can be extended to "How can I find the different id for the different types of attributes in Magento?").
==There is a chance that there is no way to change this. I've taken a look at the admin_user table and it's quite simple, all fields are there. So maybe there are no attributes in this case.==
Thanks
You can find all such ids (entity ids) in the eav_entity_type table.
And yes, there is no record for admin user. Because all data about admin users are stored in flat tables but not in eav. So to add a new attribute to admin user, you need to add a new column in the admin_user table
You will need to add a column to the admin_user table.
$installer->getConnection()->addColumn($installer->getTable('admin/user'), 'location', array(
'type' => Varien_Db_Ddl_Table::TYPE_TEXT,
'length' => 256,
'nullable' => true,
'default' => null
));
Then, if you want to add/edit this field from the backend you need to rewrite the method Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Permissions_User_Edit_Tab_Main::_prepareForm and add a new element in there:
$fieldset->addField('location', 'select', array(
'name' => 'is_active',
'label' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('location'),
'id' => 'is_active',
'title' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('location'),
'class' => 'input-select',
'style' => 'width: 80px',
'options' => array('1' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('Yes'), '0' => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('No')),
));
Clear the cache and it should work.
No option till 1.7
thats what i use in the template to show the sku to an specific user bit dirty but works fine:
<?php
//EGS SKU added for Power User
$_powerUser = 777;
if (Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomer()->getId() == $_powerUser)
{
echo '<div class="price-from">' . $_product->getSku() . '</div>';
}
?>
