[horde] Custom links in Horde menu?

[Hugo Proost]

Thnx Chuck,

I updated the Horde CVS and I am now able to use the new function 'target'
=> '_blank' in the registry.php
However....this function does not seem to work for guests if you also have
the value 'allow_guests' => true
This does not realy matter in my situation but I thought you might want to
know anyway...


Adding a custom links to the administration menu works fine if I change
_horde_admin_list() function in
> horde/lib/api.php file.
However, the second and more preffered way you mentioned does not seem to
work the way I did it.
I copied the phpmyadmin folder into my horde root. (horde/phpmyadmin)
Placed this in the horde/config/registry.php

$this->applications['phpmyadmin'] = array(
    'fileroot' => dirname(__FILE__) . '/../phpmyadmin',
    'webroot' => $this->applications['horde']['webroot'] . '/phpmyadmin',
    'icon' => $this->applications['horde']['webroot'] . '/graphics/sql.gif',
    'name' => _("phpmyadmin"),
    'allow_guests' => false,
    'status' => 'active',
    'menu_parent' => 'custom'
);

Placed this in the horde/phpmyadmin/lib/api.php

<?php
// api.php stub for phpMyAdmin
$_services['admin_list'] = array(true);
function _phpmyadmin_admin_list()
{
    return array('admin' => array(
                     'link' => '%application%/index.php',
                     'name' => _("PHPMyAdmin")));
}
?>

It seems to handle the api.php because if mess it up it crashed the horde
menu completely. It does not realy matter that much because the first trick
already worked!


Now the final one....I had a look at this for quit some time now. I know
almost nothing about php (as you may have noticed ;)
Simply adding the lines:

<?php
include("../navbar.php");
?>

... in a blank /horde/test/index.php file leaves me with a blank screen. And
no toolbar. I would like this one to work though because it makes thing look
a lot nicer... could you please give me some more info on this one?

Thnx,
Hugo
