I am modifying the welcome.html page of the manager to include some links for the
client to add new documents and videos by just filling the TVs like a form.
I am following the info found in the wiki at
http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/Customizing_the_Manager_Homepage.
So far this is what I have...
I am having a hard time configuring the links to make a copy of a "default" document that has content in it and the empty TV to be filled...
according to the wiki the link should be of the form
<a href="/manager/index.php?a=72&pid=21">Create new Media Coverage</a>
ther pid is the parent id and a is .... what is a? I do not know what is a!!
it says in the wiki the following...
If you’re scratching your head [which I obviously am] wondering how to find the URLs for the links: load the page as normally in the MODx manager, then (using Firefox) right click on the content area frame and say "This Frame -> Open frame in new tab". Then copy the URL from there.
so I do that and for my site I set it as
<a href="/modx/manager/index.php?a=27&pid=10">Videos</a>
but when I click the link to add one new page it only shows me the top part of a new page,
not the buttom part where the TVs are... what am I doing wrong?
If I try to save that half page, it gives me a DB error for not being a full page....
TIA
