Extending Functionality of Administrative pages - User Registration pages
Hi,

I need to be able to capture and store additional information about users to help with integration with another system.

I would like to be able to add either add additional information to the general tab of a user's administrative page(CMS Desk->Administration->Users->[User]->General). Or, add a new tab the user page to capture information. (CMS Desk->Administration->Users->[User]->[New Tab]).

Is it possible to integrate new functionality into the existing pages? Or is there a better approach to solving this problem.

Thanks in advance,

Andy

Hi Andy,

You can add new sections into administration interface using custom BeforePageLoad handler as described in Customizing the administration section of Dev.Guide. Since version 5.0 you can also use UI Personalization feature as described in Example: Adding a new main tab to CMS Desk section.

Please also note that if you add custom fields into 'Users' system table the 'Custom fields' tab appears automatically in 'Administration -> Users -> edit user' section and enables you to manage custom fields there.

Best Regards,

Martin Dobsicek
