Hello,

I have a page with a search form that I'd like to add to the CMSB admin instead of it being an external page. Is this possible? What's involved?

Thanks!

Glenn

Hi Glenn, 

One simple way is to add a menu link that displays a page with an iframe.  Here's how: 

  • CMS Setup > Database Editor > Add New Editor...
    • Select: Menu Type > Advanced > Text Link
  • Then edit that menu and change: 
    • Open link in: inline iframe
    • Link URL: /path/to/your/form.php

Hope that helps!  Let me know any questions.

Hi Glenn, 

The other way to do it is to create a plugin. 

You can try activating the Example Plugin in the plugins section for an example.  You can combine that with a link menubar item to link to the plugin page.

Anything is possible, it just depends on what you want to do.

Thanks again, Dave. I'll check out the plug-in example.
