Hi,

I never use some pages on the tab menu.
like Vendors, site wizard etc.
Is there a way to remove them from this admin tab ?

With regards, Ton Hermes

 I use SQL for this.  Make a note of each Item you change in case you want to restore it later.
 
SQL Script for hiding Admin Pages without removing them from the admin menu:
 
To Hide one in the menu:

UPDATE Tabs
SET
IsVisible = 0
WHERE (tabname = ' The Menu Item Name You Want To Hide' AND PortalId={PortalID})


To Reveal one in the menu just reverse it:

UPDATE Tabs
SET
IsVisible = 1
WHERE (tabname = 'Menu Item Name You Want To Hide'  AND PortalId={PortalID})

Hi,

Thanks, I gonna do this.
This question and solution made to pop up another related question.
Is it possible to add a page to the admin tab.

For example, I installed the scheduled sql jobs module and a user defined table.
These modules are only for the admin to use.
Is it possible to add them to the admin tab?

With regards, Ton Hermes

Good question!  I've never tried this myself so I cannot provide an answer.

Adding modules under the "Admin" tab can have unexpected consequences.  An example is that you will no longer have access to the standard "SETTINGS" interface for your module.  So, instead of moving modules INTO the ADMIN tab, I prefer to move modules OUT...
 

I usually set up sites with TWO different admin tabs:  the original (the one already there) and one that I add which I usually name "Site Admin" and share with a security role "SiteAdmin".  Any module I want to share with SiteAdmin users gets moved into the "Site Admin" tab.

To move modules out of the "Admin" tab and into your own tabs (DNN versions 4.x), check the instructions in this post:
