Backend Widget provides the admin screens that many Infrangible modules use to manage their data: lists (grids) with filters and mass actions, edit forms, tabs on product pages and a number of special input fields. Thanks to this shared base, admin pages of different Infrangible modules look and work the same way.
Merchants normally don’t install it directly: it is pulled in automatically by the Infrangible modules that have their own admin pages.
Features
- Admin grids with filters, sorting, mass delete and export of the selected records as a CSV file.
- Column selection in grids: admin users can hide columns they don’t need. The selection is kept for the rest of the login session, and a Reset Columns Selection button on the admin account settings page restores all columns.
- Grouping of grid records with summary values (used, for example, by the reports of “Cache Usage”).
- Edit forms and tabs, including tabs on the product edit page, editor fields with image insertion, date fields and fields for prices, discounts and numbers.
- Selection helpers in forms, for example for attribute values, product options and their values.
Configuration
Backend Widget has no settings of its own. It works right after installation.
Good to know
Backend Widget is a building block that is installed automatically with modules such as “Task”, “Cache Usage” and “SMTP” and many other Infrangible modules with admin pages.
Installation
