Adding another "Add a Sub-Page" button with the same functionality as the original one
Permalink
Hi!
I'm talking about the button in the dropdown menu in the top left c5 dashboard.
In the file /concrete/tools/page_controls_menu_js.php at line 196 we have:
I copied that line and added it again just below. That made another "Add a Sub-Page" button right next to the original one. When I click it, the contents is what I expect, but it's displayed as a new page, rather than as a pop-up.
So my question is: What do I have to do in order to make it display as a pop-up?
I think I'm supposed to add some javascript somewhere, I just have no clue where.
I'm also aware that I shouldn't edit /concrete/ directly and I'm not doing that.
Thanks

Hey Emir5 - your last forum post got stuck in the spam filter. I'll put you on the spam whitelist and you can post your message again in a few minutes.
You need to call the dialog function on your element, you will want to change the element ID to something unique.
<script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { $("#myDialog").dialog(); }); </script>
Thanks IconicSchmea, but that doesn't work. I changed #myDialog to the id of my element and pasted it in the same file: page_controls_menu_js.php.
What gets me even more confused is that the only calls to dialog() in the entire concrete5 dir is at /concrete/js/ccm_app/toolbar.js lines 211-218. I tried adding another line there with the id of my element but that changed nothing.
What tells C5 that the original "Add a Sub-Page" button in the dashboard should display it's href in a pop-up? Thats the million dollar question for me right now. Anyone that knows?

Finally! I managed to work it out and though I should explain how I did it.
The file /concrete/js/ccm.app.js contains a long unreadable string of javascript. Search that string for the id "#ccm-toolbar-add-subpage".
Copy that statement and paste it right after the statement you copied. Replace "#ccm-toolbar-add-subpage" with the id of your own button. That's it! Now your link will open up in a pop-up.
