notes in companies

[Niels]

When I enter something in the notes field in a company contact, it shows up alright in the contact overview. But when I press edit, to change the notes, they're gone! Only work around now is to copy the notes before going into edit mode and paste the 'old' note in the notes field before entering new data.

Anyone having the same? Or is it just my installation? In that case I'll have to reinstall or check my server settings, so any response would be appreciated.

I tried this with extra client companies added and my contact notes stay there, re-editing doesn't change for me.

There is a bug in notes for companies. You have to correct two things:

1) On 'application/controllers/CompanyController.class.php' on function 'edit_client', around line 227, you will see a list of company properties. You have to add 'notes' to the list, like this:

Code: [Select]

    ...
    'phone_number' => $company->getPhoneNumber(),
    'fax_number' => $company->getFaxNumber(),
    'notes' => $company->getNotes(),

2) On 'application/views/company/add_company.php' around line 167 change $contact_data to $company_data, like this:

Code: [Select]

<?php echo textarea_field('company[notes]', array_var($company_data, 'notes'), array('id' => $genid.'profileFormNotes', 'tabindex' => '185')) ?>

This will be fixed for next release.

I have tried to do exactly what you mentioned.
But I got back a Error 500: Internal Server Error

What else can I do?

Best Andy,
Firefox 3.0.11
MySql 5
PHP 5

I guess you should take out the , behind the line
  'notes' => $company->getNotes(),
because it's the last one in the list.

It works with me just fine,

thx
