Customize Cb content was created by fkang
Hi,

I am trying to use the CB content module because it might fit my needs. but here is differents things I need to figure out :

1/ Is there a way to clearly add as menu items the link "Manage your connections" ?

2/ When it is linked to the CB Menu, CB content display some link i dont need. Can I select only one of them without hacking to code?

3/ Does an CB content API exist ? To set up paramaters from the backend.


Thanks for your help

No, it's impossible to add new links other then through the PHP API.

2/ When it is linked to the CB Menu, CB content display some link i dont need. Can I select only one of them without hacking to code?

No, menu items can't be removed unless you use for example CSS to hide them. Can't advise you on core hacks because as soon as you make one you void your support and we can no longer help you.

3/ Does an CB content API exist ? To set up paramaters from the backend.

Don't understand the question. Believe you perhaps are misunderstanding the modules purpose. It allows you to supply substitutions to render inside of the module and allows you to add CSS or JS to headers, but beyond that it doesn't do anything else.

Oh I assumed that links had the same or no class. But looking at the code, I can customize every single link separatly ;)

I am asking because the example shows that to show a cb menu through that module, I need to add something like [cb:usertab tab="17" user="#displayedOrMe" /].
But what exactly means different parameters ? and what are the different possible parameters and the meaning ?

That's why I was asking for an API/library like.
