Actually, I just found out a way to trigger the update. I noticed a $save variable that seems to rely on several status related methods. I'm not sure if this will have an adverse affect on anything else but adding the following line after the switch statement seems to work:

$save = $this->active_project->save();

I'll let you know if I run into any other problems as a result of this.

Thanks!
Garry

Sorry, unfortunately I don't think I can give out that access. Not sure if there's anything else we can try.

Thanks,
Garry

Is that an option?

$this->active_project->setAttributes($project_data);

But it still doesn't seem to be saving the values.

Thanks,

Yeah, I have actually added the custom fields to the $project_data array within the edit_status() action. This worked for me with version 1.0.6 but now doesn't work with 1.1.2. I did a diff on that action as well and there doesn't seem to be any significant chance in the versions that I can see affecting this behavior. Is there any other way I can make it so these fields are not ignored if the status is unchanged?

Thanks,
Garry

Just check - edit status form does not accept any additional parameters except status itself. Other fields are ignored by the code that is used to process that form (it is edit_status action of ProjectController located in /activecollab/application/modules/system/controllers folder).

Thanks for the quick reply and I also have to say thanks for a great product!

Yeah, I actually have added it to the $fields array, created getters and setters and added case statements for each field in setFieldValue();

I'm not sure where else to look.

Thanks,
Garry

That is the place where all table fields are listed. If you have fields that are not listed there activeCollab does not "see" them.

I followed your steps and managed to add a bunch of custom fields to the Project class for ActiveCollab 1.0. But now that I've upgraded to AC 1.1.2, I tried doing the exact same thing and now when I change the field values, they don't get saved to the DB.

I added fields to the Project Status page and the only way I can change the values of the custom fields is if I change the value of the Project Status. If that remains unchanged when I submit, then none of the other changes in the custom fields are saved. I assume there is some trigger to tell whether or not the status has changed and if not, then don't bother writing anything but it wasn't like this for 1.0 and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Any ideas?
