This is something that as I remember has never really worked that well, but until getting everything upgraded today I hadn't really cared too much about. Now, it's driving me nuts... and it gets better.

• 1. trying to get the contacts first name, which according to coreBOS should be $contacts-firstname$ doesn't actually insert the name but just displays it as it's shown here.
  
  2. The Customer Portal notification message gets sent, but its displaying raw HTML in the message. I've recreated the template multiple times but the results are the same.

I finally got around to updating to coreBOS 5.5. (performed a migration from VT 5.4 to coreBOS 5.5)

Once I was satisfied I hadn't killed anything I got the customer portal from github. As far as I can tell it's configured correctly according to the installconfig.txt, but I'm getting an error I simply have no idea what to do with when I attempt to log into the CP:

I was wondering is there any auditing on customer portal users when they are allowed to change personal info etc?

I am trying to use CP as a support panel for clients but clients from same organisations/companies(generated by leads webform) can see each other and I am looking for a solution for situation.

Thanks for help again and again...

Hello; I intend to use corebos as a interface for a language school reseller.

They are selling package english programs and collecting information from students to be used in school registrations.

So for this purpose I thought core bos would be perfect fit with its already programmed customer portal/crm interface; but couldnt take up the project to an end.

Tried many versions and all versions had different troubles. Now I downloaded the latest version and tried to install it but detail pages are not working again.
My host dont let me change the service variables and it works in Native mode. But set up worked properly and installed the system.

How can I get help about installation of GitHub versions?

I set up my Backup server in CoreBOS, and made a cron job in the database following this post: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="https://discussions.vtiger.com/index.php?p=/discussion/54178/backup-cron-removed/p1">https://discussions.vtiger.com/index.ph ... removed/p1</a><!-- m -->

What I didn't realize is that the backup actually also makes a copy of the entire ' storage' folder. This is cool, but if you backup say, once a week and you have a lot of documents or images your server will get clogged after a while. A couple of ideas:

• Would it be a good idea to register the Backup service as a standard in corebos? You could always activate/disable it and change the frequency through the scheduler so a normal user wouldn't have to edit the database
• Would it be smart to make the backup process delete the previous backup after completing the current one?

I know this problem from the vTiger 5.4, but let's reintroduce it <!-- s;-) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";-)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;-) -->

When you send e-mails from the mail manager, it Always sends two.. I don't know why, but it does..

What I have seen in all vTiger versions (including 6) is a lack of distiguishment in the UI. I mean by this, let's say you have a user that switches back and forth between invoice and salesorder listviews a lot, or keeps multiple tabs open, it can get confusing. Maybe list and detailviews should get some sort of icon, or color. Subtle, but present to increase clarity and thereby improving workflow.

When creating a homescreen widget from a module, you can choose a filter. The problem is (and always was with vTiger 5.4) that you can't determine how the list is sorted. So let's say I create a filter for projects, it would be great if you could set the standard sortation (for example newest first, or sorted by prority). Then the home screen widget would also use this sorting.

First of all, congratulations on the COreBOS project. I told you this via e-mail Joe but again here in public: I like the direction you're heading.

As someone who uses the projects module a lot, I have a feature request that's basically ripped from vTiger 6. I like the way Projects and Project tasks appear in the top of the calendar there. Would be great if the same functionality could be made into CoreBOS.
