Return to Edit Template page after saving

This is far from being a hack, so I figured I should post it here.
Probably be moved though...

Anyway, this adds an option to the Edit Template page for returning to the same page or not.
If you select yes, then the template will be saved and you will be sent back to the editing page.
If you select no (default), then you will be sent to the main template list.

I wanted this cuss I sometimes I just edit a template over and over and over again, and loading the list again is quite a pain you-know-where.

Hopefully others will also find this helpful.


All changes are done to template.php (admin folder)!

Find this code:

PHP Code:

  makehiddencode("group", "$group"); 


(second time it appears, not first time!)
and right above add this:

PHP Code:

  makeyesnocode("Return to this page?","return",0); 


Now replace this:

PHP Code:

  echo "<p>Done!</p>";
  $action="modify";
  $expandset=$templatesetid; 


with

PHP Code:

  echo "<p>Done!</p>";
  if ($return) {
    $action="edit";
  } else {
    $action="modify";
    $expandset=$templatesetid;
  } 


And last but not least move this block:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start do update #######################
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="doupdate") {
  // a few lines of code here
} 


a few lines up, namely right before this:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start edit #######################
if ($action=="edit") { 


And that's it.
If you want the default selection to be yes (not recommended - for obvious reasons), change the 0 to 1:

  makeyesnocode("Return to this page?","return",0);

That's it, hope you enjoy this.

Please note that this is only and only for edited template.
For original templates the option will not show up, because well, it's bit more complex.

I added a screen shot if you still don't get this.

Very nice, Firefly! Thank you.

Very helpful, thanks bunches!

[Admin]

Heh, didn't think people will really need/like this.

Let's have a vote, do you want support for original templates?
I think it's useless, cuss if you're gonna be editing a template a lot of times it will only be original when you first edit it.

[Alien]

Really don't need that support myself.

This is great, it's saving me from carpal tunnel!
