Adding extra tab to category editor

문제
I am trying to add an extra tab to the top of the category edit page. The default ones are: General Information, Display Settings, Custom Design and Category Products.
So I have created a new module that rewrites the block that generates the tabs. Here is the relevant snippet from config.xml:
<blocks>
<adminhtml>
<rewrite>
<catalog_category_tabs>
MyNamespace_MyModule_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs
</catalog_category_tabs>
</rewrite>
</adminhtml>
</blocks>
Here is my block that overwrites the default Magento one:
class MyNamespace_MyModule_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs
{
protected function _prepareLayout()
{
$categoryAttributes = $this->getCategory()->getAttributes();
if (!$this->getCategory()->getId()) {
foreach ($categoryAttributes as $attribute) {
$default = $attribute->getDefaultValue();
if ($default != '') {
$this->getCategory()->setData($attribute->getAttributeCode(), $default);
}
}
}
$attributeSetId = $this->getCategory()->getDefaultAttributeSetId();
/** @var $groupCollection Mage_Eav_Model_Resource_Entity_Attribute_Group_Collection */
$groupCollection = Mage::getResourceModel('eav/entity_attribute_group_collection')
->setAttributeSetFilter($attributeSetId)
->setSortOrder()
->load();
$defaultGroupId = 0;
foreach ($groupCollection as $group) {
/* @var $group Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute_Group */
if ($defaultGroupId == 0 or $group->getIsDefault()) {
$defaultGroupId = $group->getId();
}
}
foreach ($groupCollection as $group) {
/* @var $group Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute_Group */
$attributes = array();
foreach ($categoryAttributes as $attribute) {
/* @var $attribute Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Attribute */
if ($attribute->isInGroup($attributeSetId, $group->getId())) {
$attributes[] = $attribute;
}
}
// do not add grops without attributes
if (!$attributes) {
continue;
}
$active = $defaultGroupId == $group->getId();
$block = $this->getLayout()->createBlock($this->getAttributeTabBlock(), '')
->setGroup($group)
->setAttributes($attributes)
->setAddHiddenFields($active)
->toHtml();
$this->addTab('group_' . $group->getId(), array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__($group->getAttributeGroupName()),
'content' => $block,
'active' => $active
));
}
$this->addTab('products', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__('Category Products'),
'content' => $this->getLayout()->createBlock(
'adminhtml/catalog_category_tab_product',
'category.product.grid'
)->toHtml(),
));
// dispatch event add custom tabs
Mage::dispatchEvent('adminhtml_catalog_category_tabs', array(
'tabs' => $this
));
$this->addTab('myextratab', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__('My Extra Tab'),
'content' => 'Here is the contents for my extra tab'
));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
}
}
Note the extra tab code:
$this->addTab('myextratab', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__('My Extra Tab'),
'content' => 'Here is the contents for my extra tab'
));
However, the right hand side of the screen is just blank. The category tree still remains but clicking on a category gives this Javascript error in Firebug: ReferenceError: category_info_tabsJsTabs is not defined
UPDATE: Having read this duplicate question and aswer on SO it looks like I have done everything. Is there some layout code I am missing?
Any help is massively appreciated.
해결책
If you are simply organizing new attribute groups, create a setup script:
$installer = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/setup','catalog_setup');
$installer->startSetup();
//Categories typically only have one attribute set, this will retrieve its ID
$setId = Mage::getSingleton('eav/config')->getEntityType('catalog_category')->getDefaultAttributeSetId();
//Add group to entity & set
$installer->addAttributeGroup('catalog_category',$setId, 'My Extra Tab');
$installer->endSetup();
If you are adding one or more attributes as well, just specify the tab name in the group
configuration value for the attribute and the group will be added automatically:
$installer = Mage::getResourceModel('catalog/setup','catalog_setup');
$installer->startSetup();
//Add group to entity & all attribute sets
$installer->addAttribute(
'catalog_category',
'new_attribute',
array(
'label' => 'New Attribute',
'group' => 'My Extra Tab' //will be created if necessary
)
);
$installer->endSetup();
If you are trying to just add some generic content, adding a tab via the adminhtml_catalog_category_tabs
event - as noted in another answer - will be the way to go.
다른 팁
So the problem with your code is fairly simple.
The xml is malformatted and should look as follows, with the <catalog_category_tabs>
and MyNamespace_MyModule_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs
on the same line with no extra white space:
<blocks>
<adminhtml>
<rewrite>
<catalog_category_tabs>MyNamespace_MyModule_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs</catalog_category_tabs>
</rewrite>
</adminhtml>
</blocks>
After making this change your code will work, but there are some other comments about your code that you should take into account.
Point 1
What your code will try to do is call your block's _prepareLayout
and then call the parent::_prepareLayout() which in this case is Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Category_Tabs
. What you can do is update your block as follows. Note: this will add your new tab first which might not be idea.
protected function _prepareLayout()
{
$this->addTab('myextratab', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__('My Extra Tab'),
'content' => 'Here is the contents for my extra tab'
));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
}
Point 2
There is an event that is perfect for what you want to do. You can listen to the event adminhtml_catalog_category_tabs
and then in your observer doing something like.
$tabs = $observer->getTabs();
$tabs->addTab('myextratab', array(
'label' => Mage::helper('catalog')->__('My Extra Tab'),
'content' => 'Here is the contents for my extra tab'
));
This would help you if any other code rewrites this block
