Hello,
I have just enabled the activity stream on a custom module following the directions here: How can I enable Activity Streams for custom modules? This means I did:
- created a file here custom/Extension/modules/<module_name>/Ext/Vardefs/vardefs.ext.php with this line of code:
<?php $dictionary['<Custom Module>']['activity_enabled']=true; ?>
- Then I created new folders to match this directory custom/Extension/modules/ActivityStream/Activities/Ext/Vardefs/vardefs.php and created a file with this code: <?php$dictionary['Activity']['fields']['avg06_Estimation_Form'] = array('name' => 'avg06_Estimation_Form_activities','type' => 'link','relationship' => 'avg06_Estimation_Form_activities','vname' => 'LBL_NAMEavg06_Estimation_Form_activities','module' => 'Activities','bean_name' => 'Activity','source' => 'non-db',);?>
I'm don't actually know any coding language so I'm not sure if my issues are with the code or not. Once I had these files in place I did my repair/rebuild and I cleared the cache and ran another QRR. Just to be on the safe side. Here are the results:
- The activity stream button is clickable!! I can see the comments in the module activity stream view.
- I can leave a comment on an individual record, but the moment I hit submit the comment is not visible on the individual record. It's only visible on the entire module view -- not on the record. (see my gif) I can create it but once I refresh it's gone.
I've checked roles and I just can't figure out what's causing the comment to disappear on the record?
Also is there a favorite way to create notifications on these comments if I @Mention someone. I just realized there isn't an automatic email or notification to tell that mentioned person that their input is requested.
Thanks for all the help!! It's appreciated.
