Mini Addon : View Forum whilst in Admin CP... · **Released**: 06-24-2002

This isnt really a "hack" by normal standards, though you do have to edit a .php file, so it qualifies

Its more of an addon...

I am actually surprised that nobody has done this already, so...

Anyway : See my screenshot for more of an explanation, not that it really needs one...

Thanks...I thought it would be a great little addition

@VeloCd - Yeh...That would be a good idea actually...You could also make it smaller, so that it looks much better

@scsa20 - That would require inserting an extra Frame into the Admin CP at the Bottom...I will explore that idea, as although it sounds easy, I bet, just to be different, it isnt

If you prefer the forum in the same frame as the main frame of the admin cp, it could hardly be easier to accomplish, pure html..

[2.2.6] In admin/index.php find...

PHP Code:


			
<td align="right"><b><a href="../index.php?s=<?php echo $session[sessionhash]; ?>" target="_blank">Go to your Forums Home Page</b></b></TD>

change to

PHP Code:


			
<td align="right"><b><a href="../index.php?s=<?php echo $session[sessionhash]; ?>" target="main">Go to your Forums Home Page</b></b></TD>

Finally reload the top frame of your admin cp, the thin one that holds a link labeled "Go to your Forums Home Page", it now points to the frame beneath.

Excellent thanks.

This is way past simple. Also it's my very first hack.

I hope it will work very well for most of you.

Anywho, what this does is that it will add a link in the Admin CP that will let you view the forum and the admin CP will stay there.

I would think of this more of a mod than a hack, but I was told that any modification done to the admin Cp would be considered a hack. But, I'm new to all of this. ^^;;

NOTE: I did check everywhere for something like this and found nothing. So if there is already something like this. By all means, you can close this thread.

Thanks would go to Dr. Erwin Loh. With the vBftp I kinda figured out on my own how to play with it, and this was my result.

If there is anything wrong, and/or there is a downfall to this, please tell me. And if you use this, please click the install button.

EDIT: Sorry, I noticed it says version 2.2.8 It should work with any version... or which I hope. ^^;;

yeah, I'm not in my house at the moment, and the college computers don't let me save them as .jpg. -_-;

merged with a hack by hellsatan which already exists

The search thing failed me yet again. ^^;; I'm way past sorry.
