Admin Tree Suggestion

Recommended Posts

I did this manually already but I wanted to drop my thought here about a subtle re-structuring...

As default we have

PAGES | SETUP | MODULES | ACCESS

What I think is useful is adding MAINTAIN:

ADMIN /

PAGES | MAINTAIN | SETUP | MODULES | ACCESS

Under MAINTAIN I move things I need to check on a frequent base while running the site

such as:

  • Comments Manager
  • Changelog
  • Piwik
  • Modules Manager
  • Logs

... content related reports and update information

(while SETUP has the settings when working on the structure).

MAINTAIN would be a new home for the mentioned modules and others which do reports.

I like your idea and different people here actually customise the manager to suit their preferences/needs. However, I think this is one of those things that is left to the user to decide so that PW doesn't box you into any design. In fact, the default installation is just a demo page. In your case, you have need for a "maintain" section. Not everybody does.  The beauty with PW is one can do what they wish with the manager as with everything else. Have a look at the different admin themes available for download here and you'll see what I mean. :). One can even decide not to have a manager at all and PW will still run :)
