I am trying to remove the "lead generation" section underneath "settings" => "CRM"

I am receiving the following error when trying:

Element '<xpath expr="//block[@name='convert_visitor_setting_container']">' cannot be located in parent view

I am using the following code to try to remove the section:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<odoo>

<field name="name">res.config.settings.view.form.inherit.crm</field>

<field name="model">res.config.settings</field>

</xpath>

</field>

</record>

</odoo>

can someone please help me out? Thanks in advance!

The error message raise because Odoo is referencing the General Settings view (general_settings) instead of the CRM settings view, which is incorrect .

To resolve this issue, ensure that your custom module explicitly depends on the CRM module by including it in your module's __manifest__.py file.

Please try the following code to remove the section:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<odoo>

<field name="name">res.config.settings.view.form.inherit.crm.remove.lead</field>

<field name="model">res.config.settings</field>

</xpath>

</field>

</record>

</odoo>

Hi,

If your question is still to hide "lead generation" part, then most of the solutions above should work for you.

You need to inherit to this external id: crm.res_config_settings_view_form

with this xpath, and that's it:

<xpath expr="//block[@name='convert_visitor_setting_container']" position="replace"/>

Try this:

<odoo>

<field name="name">res.config.settings.view.form.inherit.custom</field>

<field name="model">res.config.settings</field>

</xpath>

</field>

</record>

</odoo>

Hi,

you can try below example to replace that section/block.

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="res_config_settings_view_form">
    <field name="name">res.config.settings.view.form</field>
    <field name="model">res.config.settings</field>
    <field name="inherit_id" ref="crm.res_config_settings_view_form"/>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <xpath expr="//app[@name='crm']/block[@name='convert_visitor_setting_container']" position="replace">
        </xpath>
    </field>
</record>
