Extending Joom Donation menu

Hi! First of all, I am new to Joomla... less than one week exp...

Anyways... I wonder how I can add a new module/menu in JoomDonation

I was successful in adding a new config item in 'Global Configurations' but is now stuck at adding a new menu e.g

Configuration | Campaigns management | NEW MENU HERE | Fields management | Donors management | etc....

What I did was:

1. Modify jdonation.xml (@ administrator/components/com_jdonation)

<administration>
<menu>Joom Donation</menu>
<submenu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_configuration">Configuration</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_campaigns">Campaigns management</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_new_menu_item_here">NEW MENU HERE</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_campaigns_sub_category">Campaigns sub-category management</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_fields">Fields management</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_donors">Donors management</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=show_plugins">Payment Plugins</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=translation">Translation</menu>
<menu link="option=com_jdonation&amp;task=csv_export">CSV Export</menu>
</submenu>

2. Compress the com_jdonation (@ administrator/components/com_jdonation).
3. Uninstall Jdonation component in Extensions > Install/Uninstall
4. Upload my compressed com_jdonation file.
5. Got Plugin Install: No plugin file specified and Install Plugin Error


I appreciate any help I can get. I'm clueless haha!

Hi

The XML you modified is correct. You just modified it in a wrong file . The solution is as follow :

1. Get the file com_jdonation.zip from download package which you downloaded from my site .

2. Unzip it .

3. You will see two folder : admin, site and a file called jdonation.xml in the folder.

4. Modify that jdonation.xml file as you did .

5. Zip the folder and re-install the component .

After that, the menu item will be available .

Hope this help .

Regards,

Tuan
