Remove columns and filters from a back-office grid in PrestaShop 1.7

In this blog, we are going to learn how to remove columns and filters from the BO grid.

So let’s see together how to do that with PrestaShop.

Sometimes, we need to remove unnecessary columns to improve the user interface.

Now, We are going to remove the ‘New client‘ column from the order list page.

We will get it only by changing in module main file.

Thanks to the available hooks, it’s super easy to remove columns from a grid!

We will register the ‘actionOrderGridDefinitionModifier‘ hook in our module using the below code.

$this->registerHook(
    array(
        'actionOrderGridDefinitionModifier',
    )
);

After registering, We will do the below code in our module main file.

public function hookActionOrderGridDefinitionModifier(array $params)
{
    /** @var GridDefinitionInterface $definition */
    $definition = $params['definition'];

    /** @var ColumnCollection */
    $columns = $definition->getColumns();
    $columns->remove('new');

    /** @var FilterCollection $filters */
    $filters = $definition->getFilters();
    $filters->remove('new');
}

Now, You will see the ‘New client’ column will be removed from the order list page.

Like an order list grid, Each grid has a ‘Definition‘ hook to alter the grid.

The customer list grid has an id customer and an ‘actionCustomerGridDefinitionModifier‘ hook.

You can use it for other lists also using action<GridDefinitionId>GridDefinitionModifier

Here <GridDefinitionId> will be replaced by your grid id.

That’s all about this blog. Hope it will help you.
