Member	positivepurchasing - 5/29/2012 10:34:53 AM Extending the CMS Desk Hi I need to add functionality to the CMS Desk. I can see that the db tables 'CMS_Resource' and 'CMS_UIElement' seem to have something to do with the menus items in the CMS Desk. Is that about correct and if so how do I add to the tables and if that is all incorrect, can someone please tell me how to extend the CMS Desk? Cheers


Kentico Legend	Brenden Kehren - 5/29/2012 3:14:40 PM RE:Extending the CMS Desk What kind of extending do you want to do? You can create Modules, webparts, etc. and add those Modules to the CMS Desk and place the webparts that use those modules on the pages of the CMS Desk by finding the correct ascx control within the file system.


Member	positivepurchasing - 5/30/2012 3:31:24 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Can you point to some documentation about how to create and add modules to Knetico, please.


Member	kentico_michal - 5/30/2012 3:48:47 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Hi, Here is a section that demonstrates how you can create a custom module: Custom modules. Best regards, Michal Legen


Member	positivepurchasing - 5/30/2012 3:53:51 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Hi Thanks mate. Cheers


Member	positivepurchasing - 5/30/2012 4:32:10 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Hi Done the tutorial and that is actually quite good, I never thought I would say that. Cheers


Member	positivepurchasing - 5/30/2012 6:25:14 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Hi Is it possible to create a custom top tab? alongside the 'On-line Marketing' tab.


Member	kentico_michal - 5/30/2012 6:58:28 AM RE:Extending the CMS Desk Hi, Yes, it is possible just as it is mentioned in the documentation. The only difference is that you need to register the module in the CMS Desk section [Site manager -> Development -> Modules -> CMS Desk]. Best regards, Michal Legen
