This extension adds a weblog menu to the Edit tab.

Download link

The menu works with the default “hover” behaviour.
I looked into adding a “click” version but that requires adding loads of CSS styles, and these are different for each theme etc. etc. Maybe someday…

Let me know if you find anything odd or if you have suggestions.

Thanks, cocoaholic! Very nice extension; I will certaily use it.

I have doubts that it really correct that

“click” version [...] requires adding loads of CSS styles, and these are different for each theme etc. etc.

I did observe that when you set “click” in CP Home >  Admin >  System Preferences >  Control Panel Settings and click on “Edit” tab, Edit menu is displayed for a while but then Edit page is loaded. So it seems that for “click” version you need only to cancel Edit page load.

Very nice indeed. Thanks for thinking of this. This is one of those extensions that probably should be incorporated into the core EE install package.

Hey Cocoaholic - very cool extension. I’ll have to try it smile

Hey I was wondering if I could ask a favor?  Could you bump up the priority level of your extension so I can run one after it?  I’ve got an extension to remove weblogs from the publish tab (Publisher’s Clearinghouse) that modifies $SESS->userdata[‘assigned_weblogs’] and if these are used together then I’m messing up your extension because I’m running before it.  Since you’re at lowest priority I can’t get any lower wink

Thanks for the help!

Hi Brian,

Ah yes, priority settings… I tend to set them to lowest priority by default, no need to be first wink

I know the priority is important when multiple extensions use the same hook, but it just isn’t possible to prevent ‘clashes’ with other developers’ extensions. Maybe the priority should be a default user setting so peeps can change the priority on the fly if needed?

I have bumped the priority of this extension to 8, hopefully this won’t clash with other extensions out there.

Cheers,
Elwin

Thanks a bunch Cocoaholic.  I agree about the priority thing - it would make a good feature request smile

Hum. Can’t seem to get this to work. I tried disabling all of my 250+ extensions (okay not really that much but alot). Checked in Firefox, Safari and I even took the time to boot XP in VMWare. No dice.

Anybody else have it working okay with EE 1.6.4.
