I've been working with magnolia for over a year now and running a
production version of magnolia 2.0 since March. I'm just now digging
into 2.1 and so far I've managed to figure everything out. I'm sure
I'll have more questions in the coming weeks, but for now I'd like to
know how to secure custom AdminInterface menu buttons.
I love how easy magnolia 2.1 makes it to add a buttons to the
admininterface (add a node in Config and then refresh and get the change
immediately). Huge improvement over 2.0. Kudos! I was really hoping
that when I went to setup a role that I would be able to restrict
visibility of this button just like I can with the other 4 (website,
users, roles, config). It turns out that the drop-down list for the
roles ACL is static rather than dynamic. How can I extend this list?
Ideally I would like for it to be dynamic, but I will settle for being
able to manually edit the list.
BTW, the custom buttons that I have added are admin links. The first
one links to the Tomcat Manager (allowing me to instantly reload author
or public webapp directly via the browser) and the second one links to
Webalizer providing me statistics on my site's traffic.
