Hi

At least a few people created their custom entities following the guide.
Check what's in log (data/logs) and what's in browser console.

[2014-09-06 05:14:50] Espo.ERROR: Json::decode():Syntax error, malformed JSON [] []
[2014-09-06 06:08:50] Espo.ERROR: Json::decode():Syntax error, malformed JSON [] []
[2014-09-06 06:09:18] Espo.ERROR: Json::decode():Syntax error, malformed JSON [] []
[2014-09-06 06:09:33] Espo.ERROR: Json::decode():Syntax error, malformed JSON [] []

here is the error but where is the Syntax error? why the log not give you the file that the error is there?

Thanks

Your json is invalid. Maybe ending comma.

It's not a commercial application to ask "why not this does something". Correct to say: "It would be better if it will do something".

Hi yuri,
i found my problem! now all works great.
i just don't understand why we need to create task project?
i want to use the core task, how can i make relationship between projects and core task? i want to be able to select the project in the "create task" Parent field.

Thanks

See how it's defined for Account - Task relationship and then replicate.

metadata >> entityDefs >> Task
fields >> parent >> options
Add Project to the array

metadata >> entityDefs >> Project
links >> tasks
{
'type': 'hasChildren',
'foreign': 'parent',
'entity': 'Task'
}
