Express banner designer - Forgetting a tab (SOLVED)

Hello @Glenn,

This is a bug and a feature request combined - I suppose.

  1. The horz tab system seems to forget the additional tab I add each time I reload the “Express banner designer”. I’ve added an additional link called “Contact Support” which is a mailto: link to our support email onto the end, and it shows up on the client UI, but when I reload the banner designer, it disappears in the admin list - and thus saving changes removed the tab.

    Strangely, the first tab, which is also custom, and links back to our customer portal, is remembered each time.

  2. (Bug/Feature) Allow full HTML in the footer. While we’re working on making a customer facing portal for billing on our end (via your API), it’d be nice to drop the support widget from our help desk into the billing pages, as we do across the rest of our customer panels. This is just a simple piece of javascript to put a widget in the bottom forner, much like Zopim. However, if you place HTML (or, at least, JS) in the footer section, it gets deleted - and thus I assume parsed out - and doesn’t load on the UI.

  3. (Feature) I see you now allow to hide the horz menu, it would be nice to have an option to remove the sidebar as well :wink:

Cheers,
Leyton

  1. It’s most likely to do with the the tab regex looking for something in the form of http(s):// rather than mailto:. I’ve logged this so we’ll get it looked at.

  2. We used to have a HTML editor to provide users with full control over the header and footer HTML, but it ending up being confusing to the average users and incompatible with the express banner designer so we scrapped it. I think we could possibly bring this back, it would certainly then allow for custom HTML and JS includes to be embedded.

  3. Again if we solved point 2 you could just hide it with a CSS rule.

If you like I can try to manually embed the required components for the live support widget? Just PM me with the components to add and I’ll see if it’s possible, I’m just not sure if it will render the horizontal menu editor useless after custom HTML is added?

Just to let you know the banner menu system now correctly recognises mailto: links.
