Add a quick icon in Joomla 3


Anyone know how to add a quick icon or maybe even edit the current list of quick icons in Joomla 3.1? To be more specific, that would be the series of links that appear on the right side of the screen immediately after logging in to Joomla admin. I searched and couldn't find this question on stackoverflow.


Solution

  • If you go to the following file:

    administrator/modules/mod_quickicon/helper.php
    

    You will see on the start of line 51, arrays such as the following:

    array(
        'link' => JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_content&task=article.add'),
        'image' => 'file-add',
        'icon' => 'header/icon-48-article-add.png',
        'text' => JText::_('MOD_QUICKICON_ADD_NEW_ARTICLE'),
        'access' => array('core.manage', 'com_content', 'core.create', 'com_content', )
    )
    

    Hope this helps
