For example, this selects the tab/submenu 'plugins' in the main menu 'options':

  1.  set_path'options''plugins' );

Use append_path_level() to append a single path element.

This is an easy stub for set_path_level().

Parameters:
string|array,...   0:  VARIABLE NUMBER OF ARGUMENTS. Each is either the key of a path entry or an array(keyname, propsArray).


[ Top ]
set_path_level  [line 1212]

  boolean set_path_level( integer $level, array $pathKey, [array $pathProps = array()]  )

Set a specific path level (specific depth).

First level is 0, then the first subpath/submenu is level 1, etc.

E.g., if plugins.php gets called, there could be a call to $AdminUI->set_path_level( 0, 'plugins' ), which selects this entry from the menu. If a specific tab is called inside of plugins.php, there could be a call to $AdminUI->set_path_level( 1, $tab )

Though, it is recommended to call the wrapper functions:

This also marks the parent node as selected and checks for permissions.

Parameters:
integer   $level:  Path level to set (starts at 0)
array   $pathKey:  Either the key of the path or an array(keyname, propsArray).
array   $pathProps:  Properties for this path entry.

API Tags:
Return:  DEPRECATED True if perm granted, false if not (and we're not exiting).


[ Top ]

Add menu entries to the beginning of the list for given path.

Parameters:
NULL|string|array   $path:  The path to add the entries to.
array   $entries:  Menu entries to add (key (string) => entry (array)).

API Tags:
Uses:  AdminUI_general::add_menu_entries()
