#299 - Exporting Group Layouts
I have a development and production copies of SugarCRM. I make my changes in the development one and use the "Export Customizations" feature in Studio to transfer all my changes using the "Module Loader" in the production system. If I have a separate group layouts, only the "Default" one gets exported. I don't know if this is a bug or feature request. Thanks.

SugarCRM's export process does not package custom group layouts. You can find these in /custom/modules/[MODULE]/metdata/{GROUP_GUID}. There will be a folder in that metadata directory for each custom group layout. The name of that folder will be the unique identifier of that group. It will need to be a manual process to move those over to production as Sugar's process does not to into account this possibility.

Actually I just looked at the exported zip file created through studio from the development system and found the custom group layout SugarModules\modules\Users\metadata\8ce6e7e2-f9a8-e7d7-8cbf-528f94ce69bb. My guess is the module loader simply ignores it. So I just need to copy the files in custom/modules/[MODULE]/metdata/{GROUP_GUID} to the production system? No other files are needed from anywhere else?

That will be it as long as you've handled any custom fields, etc as part of the normal process. A Quick Repair & Rebuild is needed if copying over existing custom group layouts (gets cached to /cache/modules/[MODULE]/metadata/{GROUP_GUID}).
