function display(){ \/\/ add this if function display doesn't exist  \n                global $current_user;\n                \/\/ check if current user is in specific role\n                \/\/ code taken from thread\n                $IS_AM = in_array(\"<ROLE NAME>\", ACLRole::getUserRoleNames($current_user->id));\n                if($IS_AM)\n                    $this->ev->ss->assign('readOnly', 'readonly = \"readonly\"');\n                else\n                    $this->ev->ss->assign('readOnly', '');\n                parent::display(); \/\/ add this if function display doesn't exist \n} \/\/ add this if function display doesn't exist<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Open custom\/modules\/Contacts\/metadata\/editviewdefs.php, if doesn’t exist, go to Studio > Contacts > Layouts > Edit View and press Save and Deploy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Give custom code to the field, phone_work, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
'customCode' => '<input type=\"text\" class=\"phone\" tabindex=\"0\" title=\"\" value=\"{$fields.phone_work.value}\" maxlength=\"100\" size=\"30\" id=\"phone_work\" name=\"phone_work\" {$readOnly}>',<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Do Quick Repair and rebuild! See it working smoothly, every time!!! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note :<\/strong><\/p>If you wish this to happen only while editing a record, add a condition to if($IS_AM && !empty($this->bean->id)) <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
