[RFC] Add ACP link to the top of the index
Re: [RFC] Add ACP link to the top of the index
You dont go to ACP very often so I think it does not have to be on the quickest place.

I use the Administrate User function to ban people, clear their profile info if they are spammers. So yes I do use it often.

Re: [RFC] Add ACP link to the top of the index
I agree that adding an extra click to get the ACP is probably not the best idea, so leaving the MCP link where it is an adding an ACP link next to it (while also leaving the current link at the footer) would probably be the best idea. I'll get a PR up.

Re: [RFC] Add ACP link to the top of the index
Of course my gut reaction is to say NOOOO!!!!!!! Cluttered... Different... We fear change... Then again, it is always a pain to have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to get to the Admin Panel link, so.... perhaps this is a good idea.imkingdavid wrote:PR: https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb/pull/1826

I've always thought that they should be together. I presume that the bar will disappear if the user only has Admin or Moderator permissions but not both.

Yes, the logic is basically:Pony99CA wrote:I've always thought that they should be together. I presume that the bar will disappear if the user only has Admin or Moderator permissions but not both.

Code: Select all
if admin then:
print "L_ACP"
if mod:
print " | "
endif
if mod then:
print "L_MCP"
endif
