[Bug 40155] New: Admin type plugins clutter the administration main page
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40155 Bug ID: 40155 Summary: Admin type plugins clutter the administration main page Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff interface Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: lmstrand@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com Plugins that have the admin method are shown in the administration page under the link to "manage plugins" with a link to the admin tool and with the plugin's full description. If you have many plugins like this, the page will fill up with the plugin admin method links and the plugin descriptions. Would it be a good idea to not show these plugins on the main administration page at all (or at least show them in a more compact style like the tool method plugins show on the tools page)? The plugin methods are still accessible under "manage plugins" so it's a click saver but is it necessary to show them like described? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40155 --- Comment #3 from Lari Strand <lmstrand@gmail.com> --- We were just about to modify our existing tool plugins and change them to administrative plugins when I noticed this issue. Our goal was to hide access to these plugins from people who have only access to tools page and who could see the tool plugins listed there. We have hidden them with javascript in intranetUsersJs syspref from tools view as a temporary solution. Now that this issue came up that the administrative plugins fill up the administration page, we decided not to convert them unless there is some improvement on how they are listed on admin-home.pl. We have over 20 of these plugins that inject javascript to the intranet just like in the screenshot I took as a demonstration on how they will look like. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I will probably revert the change from tool to admin plugin for now. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
