Best way to do this?
Permalink
I have a a bunch of objects (in 5.7) that store metadata for youtube videos. Ideally I would like to have a screen like the one used to filter and manage the files. I think I have two options. Somehow use the file manager code and apply it to my objects, or, build a single page and just the manager myself.
After trying to port the file manager code, i suspect it will be easier to just write it myself. Not that it is difficult (which it may, or may not, be), but I just can’t see how to begin. I assume I can just make a new controller called YoutubeMD, and them create a new singlepage… but that seems a bit daunting (at least at this point)
But it there another way I may be missing? If you had to make an interface to a collection of objects for managing similar to the files works, what approach would you take?
