hook_civicrm_customFieldOptions

Summary

Deprecated in 4.7 in favor of hook_civicrm_fieldOptions. Use that instead for modifying all option lists, not limited to custom fields.

Definition

hook_civicrm_customFieldOptions( $fieldID, &$options, $detailedFormat = false )

Parameters

• $fieldID - the custom field ID
• $options - the current set of options for that custom field. You can add/remove existing options. Important: This array may contain meta-data about the field that is needed elsewhere, so it is important to be careful to not overwrite the array. Only add/edit/remove the specific field options you intend to affect.
• $detailedFormat - if true, the options are in an ID => array ( 'id' => ID, 'label' => label, 'value' => value ) format

Returns

• null

Example

function civitest_civicrm_customFieldOptions($fieldID, &$options, $detailedFormat = false ) {
    if ( $fieldID == 1 || $fieldID == 2 ) {
        if ( $detailedFormat ) {
            $options['fake_id_1'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_1',
                                           'value' => 'XXX',
                                           'label' => 'XXX' );
            $options['fake_id_2'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_2',
                                           'value' => 'YYY',
                                           'label' => 'YYY' );
        } else {
            $options['XXX'] = 'XXX';
            $options['YYY'] = 'YYY';
        }
    }
}

This syntax may be more convenient if you are a managing differing sets of options for different fields:

function EXAMPLE_civicrm_customFieldOptions($fieldID, &$options, $detailedFormat = false ) {
    switch ($fieldID) {
      case 1:
      case 2:
        $detailed_options['fake_id_1'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_1',
                                       'value' => 'Xvalue',
                                       'label' => 'Xlabel' );
        $detailed_options['fake_id_2'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_2',
                                       'value' => 'Yvalue',
                                       'label' => 'Ylabel' );
        break;

      case 3:
        $detailed_options['fake_id_1'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_1',
                                       'value' => 'Avalue',
                                       'label' => 'Alabel' );
        $detailed_options['fake_id_2'] = array( 'id'    => 'fake_id_2',
                                       'value' => 'Bvalue',
                                       'label' => 'Blabel' );
        break;
    }

    if (isset($detailed_options) && !$detailedFormat ) {
      foreach ($detailed_options AS $key => $choice) {
        $options[$choice['value']] = $choice['label'];
      }
    } else {
      $options += $detailed_options;
    }
}
