Greetings,
I've been setting up a local LDAP server to function as my centralized
address book. One of the features I've put in place is address book
entry via phpldapadmin.
I'm currently using phpldapadmin 1.1.0.5 on PHP Version 5.2.8-pl1-gentoo
with openldap Version 2.3.43 and apache version 2.2.9-r1
I have a customized set of create and modify templates that are used for
address book entries. They're built to containing the full list of
attributes I've built out for my address system.
Here's the hitch. When I create an address entry all of the possible
attributes are listed, and they each have a blank field in which I can
type their values. Pretty simple.
But when I want to modify a preexisting address book entry, any
currently empty attribute value requires that I have to
1) Click on the contact I want to edit and be taken to the
"Modify Entry" window
2) press "add value" on the attribute I wish to add to the contact
3) be taken to the "Add new XXX Value To YYY" window
4) type in my value
5) click "Add New Value"
6) be taken to the "Do you want to make these changes?" window
7) click "commit"
before the addition I want to make is finalized.
Whats more, if I have a set of updates I want to do on one contact, such
as adding a new telephone entry and a postal code, I have to repeat
steps 2-7 twice, for a depressingly grand total of 12 steps before I've
finished with my update.
Is there some way to cause the the "Modify Entry" window to populate
blank fields for all empty attributes, so that new additions can be
carried out in a simple single step (ala create entry?
In short, can the "Modify Entry" window be made to work exactly like the
"Create Entry" window, except with previously entered data being
pre-populated in the attribute fields?
I've found an old feature request here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1809456&group_id=61828&atid=498549
It's basically asking the same question. I wasn't able to find any
response to it though.
