administrator menu section in xml

Post by houby » Thu Nov 29, 2007 1:57 pm

Ahoy,

So here I am happy coding away in 1.5RC3 making new modules,
the administartor's components menu list is growing and growing.

Now I figured out howto create subsub menu's to one submenu, but
just cannot find a way to group these submenu's together.

In every modules' xml installation file I put something like this;

 
Test
         
                testmodule01
 

 

And in the second one;

 
Test
         
                testmodule02
 

 

And so on.
This creates two submenu's 'Test' in the administrators' components menu,
each with its own subsubmenu.

I have tried the following in the first testmodule01...
 
Test
         
                testmodule01
                testmodule02
 

 

... and then left out this section in the second module installation, but this gives
problems if you want to create a front end menu for both; the second one will not
show up in the choices when creating the (frontend-) menu.

Maybe you have an idea how to group the two 'Test' submenu's together?

Thanks a lot for replying!
Bert
