Drupal Admin Menu
June 10, 2008, 11:17:07 am
What would it take to add a CiviCRM section to Drupal's Admin Menu Module using the modules hook_admin_menu() hook? The module is found here http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu. I would be happy to do the leg work here, but don't know where to even start.

I am a Drupal developer, So when I say I can handle the leg work I mean all the coding, just need guidance on what I should do the coding, etc...

I assume u r doing this for drupal 5 (we changed the menu structure significantly in drupal 6 / CiviCRM 2.1)

Your best bet is to extend civicrm.module and add civicrm_admin_menu and send over the relevant civicrm links you want exposed

p.s> I've been playing with the module and it seems quite cool. I'll add the admin_menu hook for v2.1. My patch for 2.1 can be found here: http://fisheye.civicrm.org/changelog/CiviCRM/trunk?cs=15040. Its fairly primitive, so if u improve on it, let me know and i'll integrate it with core

I use it on all my Drupal sites (many of which are CiviCRM integrated). Having this would be great.

So I have this set up on a Drupal 6.4/CiviCRM 2.1 Beta 5 set-up (php5.2, Apache 2.2 MYSQL 5)

I am having a funny issue where the CIVICRM menu keep s being related to be a sub-menu of User Setting and sometimes disappearing completely.  I'm not 100% sure this isn't an issue with the admin menus module but wanted to see if anyone else had this issue.

I'm going to debug over the next couple of days.

It does reset correctly if I use the wipe & rebuild button under Site Configuration | Administration Menu

commenting out line 746, 'parent_path' => 'CiviCRM', in civicrm.module seems to fix this issue .  makes sense as this line is saying the civicrm admin menu should be anchored to the CiviCRM menu which this line is part of the array that creates the CiviCRM menu item. commenting this out anchors the menu at the top level
