Checkout the Skeleton module:
http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/skeleton/
To get a page in the admin section from a module use this code:
Code: Select all
/*---------------------------------------------------------
HasAdmin()
This function returns a boolean value, depending on
whether your module adds anything to the Admin area of
the site. For the rest of these comments, I'll be calling
the admin part of your module the "Admin Panel" for
want of a better term.
---------------------------------------------------------*/
function HasAdmin()
{
return true;
}
/*---------------------------------------------------------
GetAdminSection()
If your module has an Admin Panel, you can specify
which Admin Section (or top-level Admin Menu) it shows
up in. This method returns a string to specify that
section. Valid return values are:
main - the Main menu tab.
content - the Content menu
layout - the Layout menu
usersgroups - the Users and Groups menu
extensions - the Extensions menu (this is the default)
siteadmin - the Site Admin menu
viewsite - the View Site menu tab
logout - the Logout menu tab
Note that if you place your module in the main,
viewsite, or logout sections, it will show up in the
menus, but will not be visible in any top-level
section pages.
---------------------------------------------------------*/
function GetAdminSection()
{
return 'extensions';
}
action.defaultadmin.php is called when the admin page is accessed.
