Magento

Hi everyone !

I have a question !
So..I see the template link for the administration is : /adminhtml/default/default/images/login_logo.gif

I would like change the original panel by : /adminhtml/default/mytemplate/images/login_logo.gif

Is it possible ? (I would like make an another login form)

Thanks !

nb: excuse me for my english !

just change the original?

aDy, this took me hours to figure out how to do, but once I did, I wrote up a Wiki Article about how to do it. You can check it out here. Let me know if you have any questions.

wahooo, that’s rocks !!!

a big thanks for your reply, and your nice job SwiftCol

Glad you like it. Did it work for you?

hey,
if I follow the instruction in your wiki, I get the following error:

can you give me a hint?

thanks, gunnar

Can you post the contents of that file?

here is the code

class jfm_Adminhtml_Block_Page extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Template
{

public function __construct()
{

Mage::getDesign()->setTheme(’jfm’);

}

}

This seems odd, the error says jMyCompany_Adminhtml_Block_Page, but the code you posted says jfm_Adminhtml_Block_Page. Did you change it or something?

(Also, please post code in a code container so that it’s easier to read.)

I’m confused as to why you need to put the block rewrite into local.xml, I tried to make it into a module by using an xml to declare my module in app/etc/modules and by having an etc/config.xml in the local/company/adminhtml directory, but no luck. As soon as I put the xml to rewrite the block back into the local.xml file it works fine.

Always cleared my cache…

Hi all - I’ve posted a note to the wiki page advising using another method detailed in http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/835/#t7266

The reason being is that the method suggested does not change everything relating to the adminhtml template, read my wiki update for details.

Any idea how to get this to work in 1.1.6?  I don’t get any errors - but it doesn’t load the new template file that I created.

Does this work like the frontend where it uses the default unless you have the file in your template?

The front end already uses this fall back for custom templates.

I understand this, but I was asking if the backend or admin side worked the same.

The admin theme will act in the same way as any other theme, so the admin theme files take priority.

If you want to save some time and effort there is a Magento admin theme extension available in magento connect http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/cool-blue-admin-theme-7725.html

Hope this helps
