How to add an option to dropdown button next help on home page?
I would like to Customize the Drop down list next to help on the home page. How to add new option into it?
what version are you using? The solution before or after 5.4 will certainly be different due to the re-skinning of the UI
I think I found what you're looking for.
THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED IN ANY WAY. IF YOU BREAK IT YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN
To add an entry like "Google":
Edit /apache/htdocs/commander/lib/StdFrame.php
Around line 162 (Search for "// Community site"), add a block like
// Google
$fooUrl = 'http://www.google.com';
$helpLinks[] =
Html::javascriptLink(ecgettext("Google"),
"window.open('$fooUrl', 'help').focus();",
Html::text($fooUrl));

Hi Laurent, Thank you, I'm able to add a new option to the Drop down list. One question, if we upgrade to latest 4.2.X, after upgrade will it be reverted to default or remain as customized?
@Pavan -- you will lose this customization on upgrade and will have to reapply it. As @lrochette mentioned, this is not a supported customization, but it is fairly benign so you should be able to make it again with the latest 4.2.x.
