User management backend extensibility

Mikkel Høst

Hello.

I'm working on a module for a client and i was wondering if there are any way to extend the user management module in the backend besides the custom fields?

I want to make a dropdown, populated with custom data (files from a folder on disk) and give the user the option to select one or more files from this dropdown and then save this informration on the user. As far as i know, this is not possible?

I could just make a custom module where the user can do this, but in this situation it would make more sense if the whole creation of a new user process would be done on the same page..

Any ideas? or anything on the roadmap?

Hi Mikkel

@Anders - your code is frontend. Mikkel needs backend extensibility.

you can use the Ribbon bar extensibility - see the docs here:

http://developer.dynamicweb-cms.com/downloads/documentation.aspx

With that you can add a button to the Ribbon bar, and have that render a form that gives you the possibility to add your own features.

Hope this helps.
