[opencms-dev] Create Admin Module

[Michael Goodwin]

well the only differences I can see are

for me the dir is with just admin (though if it is picking up the icon ...
etc. this isn't a problem)
ie. /system/modules/com.mymodule.www/admin/psadmin
and
my properties file is in the package directory
ie.
/system/modules/com.mymodule.www/classes/com/mymodule/www/workplace.properties

if its not that I don't know, sorry. Don't forget to restart.

Mike.

I tried that and it did not work.

Here's what I tried:

/system/modules/com.mymodule.www/classes/workplace.properties
Contains:
com_mymodule_www_psadmin.icon.navtext=User Admin

/system/modules/com.mymodule.www/administration/psadmin
Has the following properties:
NavPos:220
NavText:com_mymodule_www_psadmin.icon.navtext
Title:ic_admin_psadmin

The icon shows up fine (from the pics directory), but no label.

Any input?

I think this is the case:

The label comes from a properties file (workplace.properties which belongs
in the classes directory of the module), I think it is done like this to
facilitate having different languages.

You have to restart to see changes made to properties files.

 Subjec [opencms-dev] Create Admin Module
 t:








I posted a few questions about creating a new admin module a while back and
I'm only now getting around to doing it... and I have run into a problem:

I can't seem to get my icon's caption to appear in the admin section. The
icon shows up fine, but I get the "??" navtext caption instead of my
intended caption.

What are the steps to getting a my module's navtext to display properly?

What should the navtext property of my module point to? etc...
