News Manager (updated)

[davetest]

I need to move News Manager to be under its own menu tab, rather than it being under the Pages tab. Can anyone point me in an easy direction to save me from having to work out a mod to the NM plugin or having to read all 49 pages in this topic to see if it has been done before :-)

Already done in the dev version. Next beta for 3.3 will have a gsconfig setting for this.

Thanks Carlos, I've just tested this with current beta and it does just what I needed (with setting: define('NMTAB', true); ).

I want to use News Manager in its own menu so that I can have a user who can only edit news, so I was very happy seeing you have already implemented function to disable News Manager Settings through the Multi User plugin. For my application, my user will not be allowed to edit Pages (or any other menu than NM), so I'll need to see News Manager in the dropdown list of Multi User Custom Landing Page, otherwise admin login won't work for this user.

Is there a way you can make this possible via NM or is mod needed to Multi User plugin?
