Hey Warren,
thanks for pointing me out ! i didn't know it is named as "tray" icons
do i need my controls to inherent from a Control Base class in order to be admin specific ? or i need to do a security check on Page_Load event ?
In the second part of that serie you will see the code to implement a custom tree (navigation menu). In the render method the url 'http://www.google-analytics.com' is used but you can replace that with your own url.
Adding new administration section (with icon and navigation menu)
Hey Folks,
I want to add a Section on Umbraco 4 Administration panel (beside Content, Media, Users...etc)
so here is what I'm trying to do :
1- A new section, with a icon
2- Navigation menu for this section
3- and some forms or controls specific to administration of this section.
Thanks
Hi Heogue,
There are a few posts on the forum just use the search, but a quick search brings up this post.

Hi,
The links below describe in detail how you can add custom sections.

What's really nice is that you can create package actions for generating the Sections and Tree's see the document http://umbraco.tv/assets/package%20actions.pdf for this.
Hope this point you in the right direction.
