Separating USER_ADMIN_MENU and ADMIN_MENU template blocks

[rlm]

hi,

on my theme's template.html i made room for 2 different admin menu sections (or blocks):

• the first is the standard Admin ADMIN_MENU, nothing changed here,
• the second is called USER_ADMIN_MENU, which of course is not in the standard template since it seems to be using the same block as ADMIN_MENU.

this would be ok (since they do not appear at once), but for the fact that i wish to present them differently and in different locations of the template.html page:

i need to separate the building blocks for these menus in the theme file and have different placeholders for them in the template file. Because they are to be presented differently, they are compiled separately in theme.php. They have different (html table) structures, sizes and styles. Having one placeholder for both menu types simply does not work for me.

Put simply, I want to have something like this in the template.html file:

Code Select Expand


<td>
  <!-- start of admin menu -->
{ADMIN_MENU}
  <!-- end of admin menu -->
</td> 


(and later, in a completely different section of the template's HTML table)

Code Select Expand


<tr>
  <!-- start of user admin menu -->
{USER_ADMIN_MENU}
  <!-- start of user admin menu -->
</tr>


who can help?


many thanks.

You need to add it to this array in theme.php;

Code Select Expand

$template_vars = array('{LANG_DIR}' => $lang_text_dir,
        '{TITLE}' => $CONFIG['gallery_name'] . ' - ' . $section,
        '{CHARSET}' => $charset,
        '{META}' => $meta,
        '{GAL_NAME}' => $CONFIG['gallery_name'],
        '{GAL_DESCRIPTION}' => $CONFIG['gallery_description'],
        '{MAIN_MENU}' => theme_main_menu(),
        '{ADMIN_MENU}' => theme_admin_mode_menu(),

So you would want to add something like;

Code Select Expand

'{USER_ADMIN_MENU}' => theme_user_admin_menu(),

Please report if this works.
