Enums

Post by dcrider » Tue Jan 07, 2020 12:36 pm

Is there any place in the code where it would be possible to insert our own Enums? For example, we want to add some options to the "TreatPlanType" enum. We will be upgrading to 19.3 on January 18th, so it would be ideal if there was a hook or some other means already in place whereby we can add values to an Enum, but if we have to wait for a hook then we could find a temporary alternate solution.

We have a policy to not modify enums for plugins. What you could do is create a new database table that links to the TreatPlan table. In this table, you could put any custom enum values that you want.
