Global Search
Hello all.
I need to implement a feature in PP (or ActiveCollab) that would allow a client to search all of their projects at once. I'm a designer-type but I'm okay with PHP (I can write a Drupal module). However the completely OOP nature of ProjectPier is a bit daunting to me.
It seems as though there are functions (or should I call them methods?) that search through a specific project. So I was thinking maybe I could figure out how to create some kind of loop that would just run the project search for each project. (I don't really care about the order of the results.)
Is this a bad idea? Can someone point me in the right direction?
I suppose I could do this by working with the DB directly, but I'd rather do it in a way that would contribute to ProjectPier.
Hi,
I just filed an feature request for this (http://www.projectpier.org/node/130). In the current permission setup this would be just a feature for an administrator, but if we create more user roles - like a project manager or account manager - I can imagine a scenarion for this.
Currently we are in the final steps of finishing PP 0.8 so that we do not add any new features now. After 0.8 is out we will discuss the further development / features :-)
Cheers
Roland
