Hi Chris,

Fat Free CRM supports a simple 'hooks' architecture that allows plugins to add things to views. I'm sorry it's not very well documented, but I'll try to give you an example. (As a side-note, I'd recommend renaming your plugin soon to something like 'crm_products', so I'll use crm_products as an example :) ) 

Here's a demo of how to extend the opportunities/show.html.haml template from a plugin:

1. Create a file in your plugin directory, at 'lib/crm_products/products_view_hooks.rb'

2. Open the file you just created, and add the following code:

    class ProductViewHooks < FatFreeCRM::Callback::Base

        insert_after :show_opportunity_bottom do |view, context|

          view.render :partial => "/opportunities/quotes", :locals => {:f => context[:f]}

        end

    end

:show_opportunity_bottom is the hook that is available in opportunities/show.html.haml

3. In your plugin directory, edit 'lib/crm_products.rb', and add the following line:

    require 'crm_products/products_view_hooks'

4. Finally, create a view partial in your plugin directory, at 'app/views/opportunities/quotes.html.haml'. Edit this file, and add your additional section.

Hope that helps!

Regards,

Nathan B

Hey Nathan,

As I continue development on my FFCRM plugin, I now would like to make some small changes to the core FFCRM views.  For example, I have created a "quotes" model in my plugin that has a has_one relationship to an opportunity.  I would like to add something like   = section(@opportunity, :quotes) ...    to the opportunities/ show.html.haml file but I know that I should _not_ change this file so I can continue to be the current code base.  How do I do this?

Hope this makes sense.  If not let me know if it does not and I will try to be clearer.

Thanks Nathan!

The docs here might also help a bit more too.
