Hi Guys,

I'm doing some work customising a system that's been in place for a
long time, where the farcry admin area is used by quite a few people.
The client has requested some modifications to the core dmNews type.
It seems that the obvious way to do it would be to extend on dmNews
with a custom type, add the interface it to a custom tab and take it
from there.

Ideally though, to make the change as easy for the users as possible,
I'd like to just replace the "Content > News" administration with this
new custom admin, without touching any of the other functions of this
area. (Media Library, Content Utilities, etc.)

I guess I'm just looking to bounce around some ideas on the best way
to go about it. I've played with the customadmin.xml file and I can
"replace" this area pretty easily, but then it looks like I have to
hand-code all the links to the other content functions, meaning that
if/when these change in future we'll have to recode.

Is there a better way to go about it - some way to just replace the
link to the dmNews.cfm file with a link to the custom admin, without
impacting the other elements on the content tab?

B.
