custom page for individual record - detail page.

[DLJonsson]

How is it possible to create our own custom details page for an individual record?

Is this possible with Dadabik and if so how?

Please advise

Hello,
what do you mean with custom details page? If you want to change the aspect of the default details page you can work on the CSS or you can edit views/details.php; in the second case you are changing a DaDaBIK core file though, so upgrades to newer version will become more difficult because you have to manually apply again your changes to the new version.

Hi, Eugenio

I think DLJonsson is looking for the same feature I am looking for... a template builder for the details page similar to the one for grids.

A workaround I use sometimes (not very customer / user friendly), is to change the $records_per_page_ar[0] to '1' and disable the other arrays. This leads to a grid with one record only. Now, you can use the results_grid template builder to create an individual template.

Best, Juergen

Oh I see, yes, DLJonsson if you are looking for that, at the moment there isn't any template system available for the details page as you have for results grid or for PDF.

Juergen, that is a very unexpected use of $records_per_page_ar but yes, it can work ... I think you will see the navigation (pages) links though?

Yes, the navigation is visible; that's why I don't like to use this too much...

Maybe I could hide them via CSS hidden?

Best, Juergen

The div that contains the pagination links has a class "pagination", if you can detect when you want to hide it yes, you can hide it via CSS.

One can also hide the complete lines (top and bottom) by setting the visibility to 'hidden' for the grid_status class(es)
