Ok so this problem is probably easily solvable, but since I am a beginner in Salesforce and I didn't find anything useful on Google, I am asking if someone can please help me.
So, as you can see, I have created a custom object called Students, and added some fields to it.
Next, I have created a custom object tab, called Student, as you can see on the following image and added some records.
On the custom object tab, only field 'Student Name' is shown. Does anybody know how to display all (or some) of the fields that were added to the object Student?
Thank you so much for your answers and have a great day :)
On the far right of the 2nd screenshot there's a gear/cog icon. Use it for o create new "list view". Or click that "recently viewed", change it to "all" (there should be an auto-generated one for you) and use that gear icon to select which fields to display.
You can even pin the list view to be your default if you don't want "recently viewed".
As for recently viewed itself - it's special, the gear icon won't work. Follow this article: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.customize_recent_records_list_lex.htm&type=5

For some reason, one of the work item type has a broken description field. When creating a new work item 'Requirement' in a document, opening the item, then clicking edit, the description box seems to drop down a bit but the rich text options etc are not shown and we can't change the text either.
Creating other work items doesn't cause this behaviour. Also tried in various browser just in case and various users. I've checked the Form Layouts but can't see what's wrong with this one.
Anyone having any suggestions?

I'm pretty new to React Js, I have a requirement for building AutoComplete Multiselect dropdown.

If I Click the 'X' it should be removed from the li and uncheck the item from dropdown list.
And lastly , I need to display the selected items in the input fields like
I've been trying to implement this functionality but figure out how.
Can anyone please provide some reference and any guidance in implementing this functionality or any examples. It would be a great help.
Thanks
I'm not sure why the recommendation against third party libraries. These component can get complicated fast.
I recommend you use a third party. Don't reinvent the wheel!

I have a view of entities which are being displayed based on an entity type filter. I now need to reorder these and would like to use the built in 2sxc functionality to do this, so I have a created a new view of the data using the "module data source" so that the ordering will work.
But how do I now make all of the existing entities of the same type (definition) appear in this new view? The view now displays one item by default and I can replace that one item. But how do I add multiple existing items? I need the Entity ID's to remain the same for Query String usage and SEO.
Thanks, hope the question makes sense.
Cheers
I believe that you are asking "how can I add many items to an instance (module) manually, so that I can also sort them manually" - is this correct?
If yes, then you must make sure your template supports lists (checkbox in the template settings). This then gives you a [+] button; but you don't want to use that, as it would be for typing in new data. There's another button called "add an empty demo entry" which you'll see as a round (+) after pressing the more ... button once. Pressing this will give you empty entries, into which you can then replace existing items.
I was wondering if there is a way to override the native functionality of the lookup field in Salesforce and replace it with a visualforce page. The reason I'm trying to override this button is because when the user does a look up, the look up returns everybody with that name. What we want to return is a list of all the contacts by account for the contact being searched.
Here's what I'm trying to achieve:
When the user clicks the lookup button my visualforce page will launch and allow the user to see the account and all the contacts of that account.
Is this even possible? What other ways would you suggest going about this?
Here's a screen shot of what I'm trying to change:
Thanks for all your help!
It sounds really like you just need to customise the columns on the lookup to make it better suited to your needs. If you go to Setup -> Customize -> Contacts -> Search Layouts, you'll see entries for Lookup Dialogs and Lookup Phone Dialogs, there you can edit the columns displayed in the lookup windows.
If you really need a custom solution:
You can't override the lookup page itself, but you could create a new visualforce page for your account, using <apex:detail> and other similar tags to make your life simpler. Then you could include a search section underneath, where a user can enter various search terms which you put into a dynamic SOQL query and then render the results for them to choose from.
yeah its possible by javascript as i did by visual force page that will show the records of related lists and upon selection id of that record passed to parent window by jscipt. and performed same functionality ..
As far as I know - NO.
As a workaround you can use JavaScript.
What we did in our situation? We implement everything in JavaScript. We created an inputText and right on the right of this inputText we placed image with this lookup icon. On image click we create ExtJS popup window (I think you can simply create VF page and show this page in popup window). After window was closed you fill in the inputText field.
There's no out-of-the-box override for this button, last I checked, so something custom would be required. If you're set on having a popup and do not want an inline solution, I'd recommend reviewing this tutorial to get familiar with some of the issues with popups in Visualforce.
But considering what you are looking to accomplish, you could also have your account and filtered list of all contacts associated with that account appear inline on your page when the user clicks a new, custom search button. Of course that page would itself be in Visualforce (or inline Visualforce in a standard page layout) - which you may or may not want to have to code and maintain.
The AJAX Toolkit might also be a good place to start if you want to go with a custom JavaScript button placed on a standard page layout.
Hi I am trying to create a Custom Object in Salesforce.com Developer Edition, because I would then like to use this Custom Object in a New Custom Tab say "Properties". Properties tab will contain information about Realestate Properties, like # of rooms, bath rooms etc.
The problem I cannot seem to get around is how do I create a Custom Object that has many attributes. When I go to Setup->Create->Objects it only has one Label in the Custom Object definition page. I am expecting many attributes/labels I can add so I can then put this into the new Tab.
I've been looking at this for a while and I do not see a solution, so I am assuming I am looking at this wrong. Could someone recommend a solution or a book, article that would show me what I am missing.
Thanks
The custom objects page shows a list of all the custom objects you have created. If you click on the label, it takes you to the object definition. To add more attributes (called "fields" in Salesforce), go to the "Custom Fields & Relationships" section on the object detail page. Click to "New" button to add new fields from there.
Salesforce has a huge amount of publicly available training material available online.
The fundamentals doc should provide you with what you need immediately (http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/fundamentals/index.htm).
I also recommend looking at the training courses available on iTunes (search for Salesforce).
