admin panel module settings (developer help needed)

Hi! all

I was trying the boonex module tutorial and i want to know how to create two or more design box in the admin panel or create a tab menu in the below image in red

I know to create a block this is the code in nameModule.php

$this->_oTemplate->pageStart(); // all the code below will be wrapped by the admin design

   $iId = $this->_oDb->getSettingsCategory(); // get our setting category id

   if(empty($iId)) { // if category is not found display page not found

            echo MsgBox(_t('_sys_request_page_not_found_cpt'));

            $this->_oTemplate->pageCodeAdmin (_t('_me_blgg'));

            return;

        }

        bx_import('BxDolAdminSettings'); // import class

        $mixedResult = '';

        if(isset($_POST['save']) && isset($_POST['cat'])) { // save settings

       $oSettings = new BxDolAdminSettings($iId);

            $mixedResult = $oSettings->saveChanges($_POST);

        }

        $oSettings = new BxDolAdminSettings($iId); // get display form code

        $sResult = $oSettings->getForm();

        if($mixedResult !== true && !empty($mixedResult)) // attach any resulted messages at the form beginning

            $sResult = $mixedResult . $sResult;

        echo DesignBoxAdmin (_t('_me_blgg'), $sResult); // dsiplay box

        $this->_oTemplate->pageCodeAdmin (_t('_me_blgg')); // output is completed, admin page will be displaed here

 }

If i add "echo DesignBoxAdmin (_t('_me_blgg'), $sResult);" than this will create a new box but i want to show setting options in it.

Please help me.

You will need to pass in the array of items you want in the menu as the third argument in DesignBoxAdmin()

DesignBoxAdmin is defined in inc/admin_design.inc.php

And there you can look thru the mixedButtuns array to see which array options to setup:

$mixedButtons[] = array(

                'id' => $sId,

                'title' => htmlspecialchars_adv(_t($aAction['title'])),

                'class' => isset($aAction['class']) ? ' class="' . $aAction['class'] . '"' : '',

                'icon' => isset($aAction['icon']) ? '<img' . $sClass . ' src="' . $aAction['icon'] . '" />' : '',

                'href' => isset($aAction['href']) ? ' href="' . htmlspecialchars_adv($aAction['href']) . '"' : '',

                'target' => isset($aAction['target'])  ? ' target="' . $aAction['target'] . '"' : '',

                'on_click' => isset($aAction['onclick']) ? ' onclick="' . $aAction['onclick'] . '"' : '',

                'bx_if:hide_active' => array(

                    'condition' => !isset($aAction['active']) || $aAction['active'] != 1,

                    'content' => array()

                ),

                'bx_if:hide_inactive' => array(

                    'condition' => isset($aAction['active']) && $aAction['active'] == 1,

                    'content' => array()

                )

            );

Hope this helps.  You will need to familiarize yourself with this to understand how to setup the menu.

thanks you very much. I am looking into this.

Something like this:

$aMenu = array(  

// your array data

);

echo DesignBoxAdmin (_t('_me_blgg'), $sResult, $aMenu); 

 Thank you i get it to show on the header.
