[Phpwebsite-developers] Go to Module Link

[Wendall C. <wen...@to...>]

Hey everyone,

Don and I have never taken the time to see why the Go to Module link
doesn't work with some mods after installing. I finally took the time to
find out and wanted to share it with everyone, and discuss adding it to
mods that don't have it, or modify the behavior of
mod/boost/class/Boost.php.

Anyway, in conf/controlpanel.php you need to add "admin"=>TRUE to the
$link[] array to have the "Go to Module" link appear after boosting your
mod.

I didn't test to see if this makes the mod only available to admin users
in the control panel. If that is the case, I think a modification to
Boost.php may be in order. The line that would need to be altered is 337
in current cvs:
if (isset($modLink['admin']) && (bool)$modLink['admin'] == TRUE)

I'm not sure what the original thought was behind this line. It doesn't
really make any sense to me since a user must be a Diety to boost
anyway. May be more appropriate to just whack this line. Something to
look into anyway.

The check seems to be for modules that have both an administrator
interface and a user interface.

The modules that have a setting for admin=FALSE are comments, language,
layout, notes, and users.  I believe notes should probably be set to TRUE,
since it only has one view.  But, for each of the others there are two
interfaces and since you are a deity that boosted the module you probably
would like to see the administrator view and the extra line in Boost
provides the correct module link.
