EEC.MS - ExpressionEngine add-ons

MX Extended Content Menu its small add-on making CP Content menu more useful for users (I believe).

This Accessory adds a drop-down channel list for Edit submenu. Also, in case if you use pages, you can get Pages submenu with list of pages in order to access them very quickly.

P.s. This add-on just a small part of extension which give option change CP menu totally. When it will be ready? I just can say - this fall

Review and Futures requests are welcome!

We’ve been hanging out for someone to write this, nice work! We are however having trouble getting it going with NSM Morphine Theme (http://expressionengine-addons.com/nsm-morphine-cp-theme). It would be quite exciting if we could be running both of these extensions in the same CP.

     

Could you please provide your EE2 build, Morphine build and what exactly happened?

Because usually I work with Morphine(+Anti-Pink), I just turned off it for screenshot – I decide that image with Morphine can confuse people who don’t work with it before.

     

We’re using EE 2.1.0 Build 20100810 and Morphine v1.0.0

I’ve attached the screenshot of what we’re seeing if it helps..!

Probably also worth mentioning that we have got your Accessory up and running on another version (same build) without Morphine and it works without a hitch.

... and we’re running Structure which requires JQuery 1.4.1… I think that might be the issue..?

     

do you have any JS errors?

     

Firebug is painfully silent!

     

Just download and installed, works as expected! Thanks for sharing this.

     

This is just what my client requested!
But, sadly, it results in a Mysql error when I try to change to another MSM site.

     

EE 2.1.1 issue?

Thanks for a great add-on.  I installed this on EE 2.1.0 a week ago, and it worked out great. 

I installed on a new EE 2.1.1 20101020 build tonight, and noticed that the Content menu did not change.  Also, I noticed that the Accessory tab at the bottom appearing now.  Does the add-on need to be updated, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

     

the version was update. Now will no problems with MSM

neostructuralist looks like some js conflict - I will test it today

     

Having a similar issue.  Initially worked and now it no longer works plus i am seeing the accessory tab. Possibly because i was seeing the tab on some pages and so tried to change which pages i was set to visible on. It’s when i added them all back in that it ceased functioning and now the tab shows on all pages.

     

Do you have any js errors on the page?

     

Which page are you referring to check for js errors?

     

Found the problem at least in my case.  I had an entry which had the title of Sonny’s Guiding Service the single quote in the title was messing up the parsing.  If i change it to just Sonnys it works fine.

So the fix.  In acc.mx_extended_content_menu.php at line 80 change

to

It will slash out the single quote.

That fixes my issue anyway hope it helps some others.

     

Yep,  I can confirm that the version I was using (1.0.2) suffered with the same escaping quotes issue. Wish I knew this forum was here, it would have saved me some time.
