From here you have an overall view of your contacts:
Type in the search box to start filtering, results update dynamically as you type:
CRMx detects your custom form field types and adds shortcut lists on the top navigation automatically:
View a person details, edit them directly and also add timed comments:
Buttons appear next to the person fields to email, search Google or Skype-call in one click
There is no Settings menu or user accounts, all is done in PHP variables (like Sublime Text) in the config.php file, which makes the code app a lot smaller as well as easy to administer, maintain and scale.
Open config.php to modify the app settings:
User accounts are created by adding them to the $users PHP array. These are the fields you can customize:
There is no login screen in CRMx. Users bookmark a long URL and click on it to login. You should specify a long and unique password (at least 50 characters) for each user and then send them the URL to bookmark, which looks like:
http://crmx.com/login/thesuperlongpassword
Environments allow users to work on separated CRMx (with their own contacts and form fields) while using the same app. Add that prefix to a user and another array in $form. Simple as that.
It's very easy to customize CRMx to your own needs. You just need to modify the $form PHP array in config.php and the app will take care of the rest.
Just name and title are needed:
Specify 'type' => 'select' and a list of elements:
You can use other HTML5 form field types like: password, hidden, color, date, datetime, datetime-local, email, month, number, range, search, tel, time, url and week.
This is how I have my personal CRMx config.php set up:
To skip a form field to show in the main table, set the hidden property to 1. This is useful when you have a lot of fields or you want to disable a field you might want to use in the future.
Note that if you remove a field from config.php it will still be in the database and will disappear when that person is updated. If you'd rather not loose any info, set hidden = 1 instead of deleting it.
(none)
The home page in HTML format (including the default people and form JSON lists embedded to save server requests).
On success redirects to Home, on fail shows a message.
Searches people for that query and returns a JSON array.
You can pass an ID or a name, returns results for a single person (if more than one match returns the most recently modified).
With plugins you can add extra functionality to CRMx without needing to modify the core files. Creating plugins is extremely easy and you can run PHP, JavaScript and/or CSS code. To create a plugin, add a new folder to the plugins folder and files, all with your plugin name:
All files are optional, if you want to create a theme then a single CSS file should be enough. If you want to have a file that doesn't run automatically then name it differently than the plugin name.
The last step is to add the plugin name to the $plugins array in config.php.
In the lang folder, create a new language file (use ISO 639-1 codes) or use an existing one.
Then, add 'lang' => 'es_es', in the user's configuration.
Alternatively, you can change LANG_DEFAULT so everyone will have the same language.
Having different languages is not only useful to change the language of CRMx but to customize the app further. For example, if you use CRMx as a Project Plan system you can rename 'Name' to 'Project' or 'Save contact' to 'Save project'.
(You don't need to create any tables, CRMx will create them automatically)
