WP Plugin: My Dashboards

06/15/2009 Monday

looks like this

This plug-in adds links of your ‘other’ WordPress admin page below original dashboard menu section.

WordPress 2.7 environment

Place files into your /wp-content/plugins/ directory and activate through the administration panel.

Title: Name of link (any)
URL: admin panel url. (url should be end with ‘/’)
e.g. http://www.example.com/
e.g. http://www.example.com/wp-admin/

* June 14 2009 – v0.1.0
- Initial release
* June 15 2009 – v0.1.1
- bug fix: it did not work with IE and FireFox – Fixed.

If you like this plugin, writing small entry on your blog and trackbacking to this entry makes me really really happy!

Great idea, This is exactly what I was looking for. In my admin dashboard, it seems to force the main url under dashboard links so the links don’t work. It comes up page not found in my blog. It does this:

http://mymainblog.com/http://www.mysecondblog.com/wp-admin/

Hi,

well, I need some more information to find out what happened with your blog and dashboard. If you do not mind, please send screen shot of ‘my dashboards’ settings by email (use retagr icon at sidebar to send email to me). Off course you can erase the information on that image if there’s confidential thing onit. thank you.

Guys,

I;ve tried to re-produce this issue, but it work with my place fine, however, I’ve changed my code more compatible. I will wait those screen captures to check what happened at your blog before releasing new version.

OK, I’ve updated source file to repository. New version is 0.1.1.

The reason why it does not work is browser problem. I do use Safari 4 but old source does not work with FireFox and IE. Now I made some modification to my source code so now it works fine.

Hi Jacqueline,

The link which this plugin added is not ‘A’ link so currently there’s noway to make this as ‘A’ link with ‘_blank’. I will think about this issue for optional purpose, but until that, use right-click (windows) or command-click (mac safari) to open other dashboard. thank you for your idea.
