Hi all.

I'm experimenting with creating my own default template, including modifying the admin.template file to change the base name of the "admin" tab.  The modifications so far are working fine, but something about the admin.template file is breaking the way the menu system renders the icons.  Essentially, all the icon images under my admin tab (now called SiteAdmin) are broken.  I checked the image urls and they are defaulting into the portal directory 0 itself, instead of the shared "images" directory of the application root where all the images are kept.

I moved one of the tabs from under the renamed admin tab and its icon showed up fine.  Also the host icons are rendering fine too. 

I've included aa fragment here... any help or input appreciated.

Thanks.

Dave Gerding

Hi all, just double checked and changing the name of the tab back to just Admin fixes the problem. Does this mean the icon paths are being resolved somewhere based on "admin" as string literal??
