Modify the Attribute Template admin code

[delgriffith]

I need to modify the code in the admin for Attribute Templates. I spoke to support as I have a platinum support contract but was advised I had to post here. So I am.

I need to replace the form in MIVA 5 admin that allows you to create a new attribute template and that can be reached from the admin by selecting:

Attribute Templates [Add]

and after clicking "Add", and filling in the "Attribute Template Code" and "Attribute Template Prompt" fields, clicking "Add" again and then clicking "Attributes and Options".

It is this page, after clicking "Attributes and Options" that I wish to modify. I need to rework the usability of the form firstly.

Secondly, once a new Attribute Template is created, I want the user to be able to select one of these existing Attribute Templates as the basis from which to make a new Attribute Template.

So how do I modify this page or how do I modify the "Attributes and Options" link in order to take the admininstrator to an entirely new page I create? Is this part of the MIVA code accessible? If not I guess I could create a new module that would do what I require and no longer use the standard admin interface.

Thanks

MIVA does not currently made any of the source code for Admin available.

You therefore, cannot alter admin.

You would have to write your own module, your own screens, and your own form, that took over this process.
