apex:related list tag not respecting custom buttons
Hi All,
I have overidden the Contact page layout with a custom VF page. I have added my related list via the <apex:relatedList /> tag however, the related list shown is the default related and I have no way of showing any custom buttons I created.
On the related object I have created 2 custom buttons and I wanted to show these custom buttons and NOT the standard 'New' button however I see no way in which I can pull in the custom buttons without re-creating the related list by hand and essentially hacking the SFDC styles in there.
Has anyone ever had to do this or am I over-looking a simpler solution.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Omear
Found out that the <apex:RelatedList /> tag actually does follow a recordtypes associated Page layout so that however you have the buttons and fields configured on a particular page layout, even in a VF page they will respect the records record type and page layout settings (I'm assumimg this only works when you have a standard controller).
My issue was related to another developer changing the page layouts and therefore causing me to not see the functionality I expected.
as for the response, you must have not understood my question as I know how to add buttons to a related list, but I appreciate the response nonetheless.
