SugarCRM Extension/Modules/Integration Notes

  • Under custom/Extension/modules/[module to extend/modify]/Ext/Menus add a [new module].ext.php file with the additional menu options.
  • If you want to change a menu option, loop through the menu array and replace that option with the new one, in the menu.ext.php file.
  • Be sure to rebuild/repair the module before testing changes.
  • Spend a good amount of time looking at the Sugar code as you’re working. It’s very powerful, and the less code you write, the better the solution will be.
  • If you’re just modifying existing functionality, copy as much code as possible, the update it.
  • Understand PHP classes and extensions.
  • Never modify the distributed code.
