Mini Addon : View Forum whilst in Admin CP...

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...

All you have to do is use a iframe...so, why even go through the trouble in making this a hack? oh well..

Sweet hack, simple but cool.

[scsa20]

is there a way to do this by making another frame from it?? and how?? see picture to give you a clue what I'm talking about (which can be forund here). thanks

Even though it is simple, I like it a lot. Good job.

Great addition hell satan! I have found it very useful once installed, although it would be much nicer if the frame was on the top and could be viewed in any page of the Admin CP.

I would have to say the most important page for this frame to be in is the templating page, so to obtain the frame just do this:

In admin/template.php, find:

PHP Code:

function dotemplatejavascript() { 


And above it place:

?>

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1">
<tr>
<td height="12">
<div align=center><iframe name="cwindow" style="border:0" width=800 height=400 src="http://localhost/forums/"></iframe>
</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
