Here is what I do to put custom buttons on my grid view in SQLFORM.grid In my Controller:
if not request.args(0) in ['view']: details = False links = [lambda row: getProductionDisplayAnchor(row)] grid = SQLFORM.grid(query, fields=fields, orderby=orderby, left=left, create=create, details=details, editable=editable, deletable=deletable, csv=False, search_widget=workorderSearch, paginate=15, maxtextlength=45, links=links, formstyle=my_formstyle, ui=grid_ui) And then the getProductionDisplayAnchor function def getProductionDisplayAnchor(row): """ build the anchor tags for the action buttons on the Production list page """ anchor = '' try: workorderId = row['workorder']['workorderId'] except: workorderId = 0 if workorderId > 0: anchor = A(SPAN(_class='glyphicon glyphicon-pencil') + ( ' Record Usage' if db.workorder(workorderId).completed == None else 'View Usage'), _href=URL('production', args=('view', 'workorder', workorderId), user_signature=True), _class='btn btn-default') or '' return anchor >From the web2py book: links is used to display new columns which can be links to other pages. The links argument must be a list of dict(header='name',body=lambda row: A(...)) where header is the header of the new column and body is a function that takes a row and returns a value. In the example, the value is a A(...) helper.
