Add admin tabs to Backpanel

[kaktus.m]

Hello,

I am trying to install multiple tabs to the Backoffice of Prestashop. The main tab with the id_parent = 0 appears in the database. The other tabs aren't even installed.

Here is my code:

In install() method of the module:

// Install admin tab
if (!$this->installTab('AdminKonfiguratorTab', 'Konfigurator', null, true) && 
	!$this->installTab('AdminKonfiguratorTabOverview', 'Konfigurator Overview', 'AdminKonfiguratorTab') && 
	!$this->installTab('AdminKonfiguratorTabOrders', 'Konfigurator Orders', 'AdminKonfiguratorTab'))
return false;

 

the installTab() function:

public function installTab($class_name, $name, $parent, $parent_tab_isZero = false)
{
  // Create new admin tab
  $tab = new Tab();
  if($parent_tab_isZero) {
  	$tab->id_parent = 0;
  } else {
  	$tab->id_parent = (int)Tab::getIdFromClassName($parent);
  }
  $tab->name = array();
  foreach (Language::getLanguages(true) as $lang)
  $tab->name[$lang['id_lang']] = $name;
  $tab->class_name = $class_name;
  $tab->module = $this->name;
  $tab->active = 1;
  return $tab->add();
}

Hi

Should I change the AdminModules controller? Can I use this function?

function __construct(){

...

$this->tab = 'my_fancy_tab';

...

}

Cause it seems to me all modules are in Other tabs all the time appearing. There's also an Autoupgrade module  writemyessayfast source.

 

Thanks.
