Template for admin page

odd hogstad	Thursday 16 December 2004 6:06:35 am I want to make a custom admin page with some basic options for adding content to my site available for me and some other users. However, I also want to keep the original admin page when I need to make others and more serious changes to the site. I thought this could be a button or a link from my custom edit page. So far I have not been able to figure out a way to to this, so I wondered if this is possible at all?

You can then provide edit functionality in your templates for users with access. Another way (a lot more work) is to create a special admin siteaccess (similar to create a new admin interface from scratch) with only the features that you would like to have.
