Is it possible to add to admin templates?
with something similar?


Sorry, I know very little about gl's templating system.

Thanks,

The current list (from 1.6.1's lib-custom.php) is:
So, no admin templates currently. I don't see a reason not to add them, though. Are you missing anything specific?

bye, Dirk

Several actually, but let me suggest a more global approach.

Once we too briefly discussed the need and method of adding additional content/tabs to the user profile.
I believe I've found such a solution and the admin navbar/tabbed content sections could benefit as well.

I'm currently working on a user request to have a tab in the story editor with gallery's upload applet embedded so you don't have to pre-upload images or leave the editor to do so.

My approach so far:

• using javascript (preferrably jQuery) add our extra tab to the nav and hidden content <div> to our options using appendChild:
  
  Text Formatted Code

  
  jQuery("#navlist").append('<li><a onclick="showhideEditorDiv(\'upload\',6);return false;" href="#"><span style="padding-top: 5px;">Upload</span></a></li>');
  jQuery("#se_options").append('<div id="se_upload" style="width:100%; border:1px dashed grey; padding:0; margin-top:10px; display:none;"><div style="margin:10px;">{gallery_upload}</div></div>');
   
  
  
• Next I had to edit advanced_editor.js and add my item to the divarray:
  
  Text Formatted Code

  var divarray = new Array('publish','images','archive','perms','options','bottom', 'upload');
  
  
• the next logical step would be to add load my content to my container ({gallery_upload}) via plugin_templatesetvars but progress halted there.
  

The above would also work for the profile editor as previously I wanted to add a subscription management tab for newsletters.

If the site's hard coded javascript was php so it could be more dynamic we could add to the divarray on the fly.
If plugin_templatesetvars worked across more templates...
Maybe a new plugin_attachvars or similar to allow plugin developers to target specific templates or a logical template var and placement of collected plugin code additions. <- still kinda fuzzy here as to the best approach.

This is at least the second time as a plugin developer my progress has halted due to missing methods to add content when/where I want.
Geeklog needs such capabilities.

Are you on the geeklog-devel mailing list? I think technical issues like that are better discussed there.

bye, Dirk

I am now

Any insight on my localization issue?

To add the user option to control email subscription you can use PLG_profileVariablesEdit

I'm available to customise your themes or plugins for your Geeklog CMS

But the ability to add a new tab to the user settings would be a nice feature.
