The Dash extension allows you to create a centralized administration dashboard, as well as include an administration menu on your pages.

Requirements ¶

This has been tested with 1.1.9, but should work with any version.

Install the database schema located in '/data/dash.sql', modifying the table prefix as needed.

Configuration ¶

Be sure to configure the 'db' component of your app to use a table prefix, otherwise you must update the DashBlock model's table name.

return array(
   ...
   'modules' => array(
     'dash',
   ),
);

Usage ¶

To view/configure the dashboard, simple visit 'dash' and start creating blocks. Each block has a title and a set of links (referred to as actions). Each action goes on a new line, using the format > URL|Title (e.g. http://google.com|Google or site/login|Login)

To use the dashboard menu, include the following widget before the </body> tag in your main layout file. NOTE: Be sure to check the user's access before displaying the widget.

$this->widget('dash.components.DashMenuWidget');
