Starting to make edits, need help

[BattleMetalChris]

Hi,

I'm trying to start adding some custom content. I'm following the guide here: https://docs.espocrm.com/development...nd/controller/
I've just tried the first section, adding the controller json in custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/clientDefs/Account.json and the javascript in client/custom/src/controllers/account.js

However, when I try to browse to http://localhost/espocrm/#Account/hello I get a 404, even with a Shift-F5. (http://localhost/espocrm/#Account and the rest of the application is working fine)



Screenshot of my folder structure attached:

WORKED IT OUT!!

I had to run clear_cache.php from a command line and it's picking up my changes now.

EDIT: odd, I've seen a few place say to do that from the admin menu, but it doesn't work if I do it from there.

To clear cache and rebuild, which is a necessary step to make customization changes take place, you go to Administration >> Rebuild

Hi Battle, you seem new here, welcome to the Forum. Firstly allow me advert the unofficial wiki https://github.com/o-data/EspoCRM-Le...nd-Design/wiki
which is just bunch of thread/post relating to certain thing that I find is good (and there is a solution for).

More importantly, I recommend you doing a search for "telecastg" or "tutorial" on that page, he create quite a few thread with how-to-code. You can probably do code yourself but it good to reference where all different file are located if you are new to developing for Espo.

PS: I'm just a regular user like you and not part of the official team. Anyway looking forward to any contribution you may bring to the community.
