editing admin templates

[mmv]

hi,

i'm trying to modify the admin templates - i'd like to re-arrange some fields and hide other i don't need for my project.
specifically, i want to change addcontent.php and editcontent.php.

i've looked around the project structure for some time, but i wasn't able to find a template page for the admin areas...
where do i find it?

also - i couldn't find the specific TinyMCE references to change it from the full editor to just the simple one.

thanks in advance!

The admin is one of the weaker aspects of CMS. At least the parts I wrote...

So there is no set of template files, per se. The admin all lives in the CMS_ROOT/admin directory. The various functions are split out into all those files. Most of them should be reasonably self-evident from the file names.

There is a certain amount of power in the admin theming setup. Take a look at CMS_ROOT/lib/classes/class.admintheme.inc.php, and what happens in the default theme folder (CMS_ROOT/admin/themes/default).

To create a new theme, you could just copy that directory, and start customizing. We should have another theme available so people can see how the theming system works, but I haven't had time to make one.

Good Luck!

As far as the content editing itself, it's handled directly by the content type itself.  Look in lib/contenttypes/Content.inc.php.  There is a EditAsArray function, which displays the fields that are used in the add/edit pages.
