Hello

I would like to add a icon to my cpanel.

I read the instructions at
http://forums.cpanel.net/348747-post24.html

But i thing the Generator has an extra field now and confused how to add it.

The two feilds in question for me is:

Anchor Content:
On Click Event:

I would like an icon to simply point to a external url, could someone please provide a example of what code to place in the fields above to point my icon to a url.

Thank you in advance...Aaron

Anchor Content: (just leave this as it is)

On Click Event: location.href='http://example.com';

Where Example Web Page is the full URL you want to direct your customers to.

thank you for your help, will this open the link in a new window?

Many thanks...Aaron

My example opens in the same window. This is just Javascript code, so you can just put your own function call in there if you want.

I just tried it out and i get this error:

The server was not able to find the document (./frontend/x3/sitebuildericon/index.html) you requested.
Please check the url and try again. You might also want to report this

Am i missing something?

Again thanks for your help...Aaron

Verify that Access URL: in the Plugin Generator (when you use it) is blank. When you are relying on Javascript code, leave this blank.

Hello

I left it blank and the generator gives this error

There was a problem generating your .cpanelplugin file. Please correct these errors and try again:

•Required field: url was not filled in.

Any way around this?

Please copy/paste the Javascript you are using. Additionally, ensure Javascript is enabled in your web browser.

For the URL, please try "#" (without quotes) -- that is, a pound or number sign (1 character).
