Readonly Field Highlighter
Gray background on readonly fields so users stop clicking them
Starts at 1.99 USD
Your team clicks readonly fields, sees nothing happen, clicks again, then asks IT if the form is broken. Readonly fields in stock Odoo have subtle styling that most users miss under deadline pressure.
This module adds a visible gray tint to every readonly field the instant a form opens. Editable fields stay white. The contrast is immediate. Users see where they can type before they waste a click.
Works automatically on every form view across Sales, Inventory, Accounting, and custom modules. No configuration needed. Install once and the distinction appears systemwide within 60 seconds.
If your support queue includes 'this field won't let me type' tickets, or your staff clicks readonly fields multiple times before moving on, this solves it. One install, every user benefits.
