admin panel: <title> and 'branding' options...

Post by kermit »

when you have multiple tabs (windows) open to several sites' admin panels, it can get a little kornfusing as to which tab has the site you're looking for..  so how about adding the sitename to admin pages's tag (when logged in) ?

it also would be kinda nice to have it in the admin page header somewhere too. perhaps a simple admin 'branding' system: customizable logo, display text, and optional local 'help' page with site-specific instructions and support info (site guidelines, who to call for help, server admin, etc... could be specific to a users' group even)
eternity (n); 1. infinite time, 2. a seemingly long or endless time, 3. the length of time it takes a frozen pizza to cook when you're starving.
4,930,000,000 (n); 1. a very large number, 2. the approximate world population in 1986 when Microsoft Corp issued its IPO. 3. Microsoft's net profit (USD) for the quarter (3 months) ending 31 March 2007.

It looks like they took this into account in version 1.1
However, the site title comes first in the upper tab and so now i cannot tell tabs apart.

How do I change this around?

If you go to /admin/themes/default/defaultTheme.php on line 96...

cms->siteprefs['sitename'] ." - ". $this->title ?>

Line 86, just tells what the next set of code does...

    * This method outputs the HEAD section of the html page in the admin section.

Question.. If I wanted to add the site name to the login page down where the copyright is, how would I add it?

Like this? cms->siteprefs['sitename'] ?>

I've tried this and it doesn't work.. Anyone got any ideas?
