      How can I override the standard Account view with a Visualforce page?

      Posted by Shubham on April 30, 2016 at 8:28 AM

      How can I override the standard Account view with a Visualforce page? What I want is when I click on any account record the Visualforce page that I have created shows up.

      Hi Shubam

      Go to setup > Click on button and links for any standard object for which you have created the custom visualforce page > click on view button > override with your page

      Note : It will work only with those pages which are using the standard controller
