Ok, so I am using a ReportManager plugin. I am able to use it as is by using this url: 'localhost/AppName/report_manager/reports'
Now, when I try to use it on the project I'm working on, I have a problem with accessing the plugin's controller.
I have a side bar which contains several links. Here's the code:
<div id="wrapper">
<!-- Sidebar -->
<div id="sidebar-wrapper">
<ul class="sidebar-nav">
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Home',
array(
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'index',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Messages',
array(
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'messages',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li id="sidebar-header">Misc</li>
<li>
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Received Documents',
array(
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'documents',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Calendar',
array(
'controller' => 'calendars',
'action' => 'calendar',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li>
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Manage Events',
array(
'controller' => 'events',
'action' => 'manage',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Reports',
array(
'controller' => 'reports',
'action' => 'index',
)
);
?>
</li>
<center><hr class="item-divider"></center>
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Manage Accounts',
array(
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'manage_accounts',
)
);
?>
</li>
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Logout',
array(
'controller' => 'user',
'action' => 'logout',
)
);
?>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
So I have a link name 'Reports' that would open the ReportsManager plugin. So far I cannot figure it out how to access it.
I tried this one:
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Reports',
array(
'controller' => 'report_manager/reports',
'action' => 'index',
)
);
?>
</li>
It works, but once you click other links you will see this on the url: 'localhost/AppName/report_manager/members/documents'
Any way I can fix this?
Add 'plugin' => 'PLUGIN NAME HERE'
<li id="sidebar-header">
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Reports',
array(
'plugin' => 'report_manager',
'controller' => 'reports',
'action' => 'index',
)
);
?>
Other links 'plugin' => false
<?php
echo $this->Html->link(
'Home',
array(
'plugin' => false,
'controller' => 'members',
'action' => 'index',
)
);
?>
