Prasan6 Add Visualforce related list to parent page layout
Hi Guys,
I have a Page layout where child related lists exists, I would like to overide one of the child related list with a Visualforce page. I have created the visualforce page but how can I override the standard related lists with the custom visualforce page?
Thanks,
Prasanna

In the Outputlink, set the target attribute to blank in order to open New Tab.
Similarly, use Command Link instead of command button and set target as blank.
<apex:commandLink value="New Order" action="{!createNew}" target="_blank" styleClass="btn" style="padding: 4px 3px;text-decoration:none;"/> <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!Order}" var="o"> <apex:column headerValue="Action"> <apex:outputLink value="/{!o.id}/e?retURL=/apex/{!$CurrentPage.Name}" id="editLink" target="_blank"><b>Edit</b></apex:outputLink> |</apex:column> </apex:pageBlockTable>Veenesh

You can add your "Custom Related List" VF page in the record detail page layout. However, you cannot put the VF page in the related list section. However the best option you have is to include the VF page in the lower most section of the record detail section.
Hope this is helpful!

I have another couple of questions on the Custom Visualforce page.
- I have Edit link on the Custom VF page which works but does not open up in new window. Basically I need to this related list identical to the standard related list.
- Similarly New button, works but opens in the same page does not open in a new window.
Inshort this related list created from VF should be identical to any standard related list. - Could you please let me know how I could get this right?
My VF code:
<apex:commandButton action="{!createNew}" value="New Order" />
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!Order}" var="o" rendered="{!NOT(ISNULL(Order))}">
<apex:column headerValue="Action"> <apex:outputLink value="/{!o.id}/e?retURL=/apex/{!$CurrentPage.Name}" id="editLink"><b>Edit</b></apex:outputLink> |
</apex:pageBlockTable>
Controller for New:
public PageReference createNew() {
PageReference page = new PageReference('/a04/e');
page.setRedirect(true);
return page;
}

Thanks for the update, but I want this to open up in the same page, just like any other standard related list.
Thanks,

Replace target="_blank" with target="_parent" and you will be good to go!
