Admin customization

[Kavehrafie]

I love Canvas, but I want to customize the backend.
What would be the best practice to customize (change the current admin pages and add new admin routes)
Thanks!

There's not an easy way to do that. If you really wanted to change the backend, you'd need to modify parts of the vendor directory, which isn't ever a good idea. What sorts of things are you looking to include in the admin area?

It would be nice to be able to publish the vue templates of Admin to tweak the design. I would like to add image cropping and new widgets.
Nice app though! Thanks!

I'll see what I can do about adding that into v7.0

First of all thank you very much, I think this project is great, I am a newbie programmer and this project has helped me a lot, just one thing I need to do and I can't, I need to place one more button in the settings screen, that would be below the language selector, I don't know much about vue, and I tried adding one more button row in /vendor/austintoddj/canvas/resources/js/views/EditSettings. vue , then I did "npm run dev" and tried reinstalling with "php artisan canvas:install" and "php artisan canvas:ui" without success(not seeing the button in the browser) , it would be much abuse if you explain me how I can do this? I just need to add a button that will go to an external link (validation for instagram feed), I don't want to modify anything else.

• or is this not supposed to be done? or can't it be done? since it is not code of my project itself? please excuse my ignorance.

I hope it is not too much trouble! and again thank you very much!

sorry if there are mistakes I'm not fluent in English.

Closing this as it won't be the focus on v7.
