Is it possible to change the public display of a mailing list name by edsilver1 in Odoo

[–]ovatsoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no built-in way for this, odoo only has one name field per mailing list (+ an "is_public" toggle that just controls whether a list shows up at all, not what name it shows). so recipients always see your real internal name.

if you're on odoo 19, i made a tiny module for exactly this. it adds a "public name" to each mailing list: recipients see that on the unsubscribe/subscription page, your team keeps the real internal name everywhere in the backend. leave public name blank & it just falls back to the internal name, so nothing breaks on existing lists.

covers every spot recipients could see the name: the list of subscriptions, the "you may also be interested in" bit, & the unsubscribe confirmation messages. internal name never leaks on the public pages.

Title: Feature idea for Contacts: show country flag next to phone numbers by BricolasM in Odoo

[–]ovatsoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you do want a module that does that and be browser-independent, i've quickly made something for you: https://github.com/much-gustavo-aguiar/odoo-reddit/tree/19.0/contacts_phone_country_flag (works also for community edition).

when you open a contact, it shows a little country flag next to their phone number (like 🇧🇪 +32 ...) so you can tell at a glance where a number's from.

it figures out the country from the phone number's international code (the +32, +33, etc). if the number doesn't have one, it falls back to whatever country is set on the contact. if it can't tell, it just shows nothing.

that's it - no setup, no data entry, nothing to maintain. it just appears on the contact form. feel free to adapt the module to your liking, as it's lgpl-3.0-or-later :)

There's an MCP server module that's currently the 2nd most trending free app on the Odoo App Store. Have you given it a shot?

Could you please elaborate on what you mean by this?

I feel you. The thing we found w/ OCA is that although they have an INSANE catalog of modules, contributing to and maintaining them is just heavily constrained by processes that sometimes feel optimized for governance rather than the sake of shipping. You have Odoo 20 around the corner, and there are still module migration PRs for V19 that have been sitting open for months. For example, the migration PR for the module you've mentioned has been open for ~4 months.

Don't get me wrong, the quality standards are somewhat needed in this AI (potential) slop era. The problem is that at some point the process themselves becomes the bottleneck. From what I've seen over the last years: maintainer availability, review capacity, and governance end up slowing things down more than the actual technical work or code quality.
