Co-existing with XenCarta

We are transitioning from XenCarta to VaultWiki but must be able to have them co-exist for a time. On the front end this seems easy enough, however in the Admin XenCarta seems to have control of the WiKi admin menu and I don't have a VaultWiki admin menu.

Is there a way to show the VaultWiki admin menu as well as the XenCarta menu at the same time so I can configure each?

Thanks.

Okay, for now, the following modifications should get you in a position to use both simultaneously:

In src/addons/vw/vw/_core/model/url/xf0.php, find:

Code:

$base_path = $this->base_path('admin') . '/admin.php?'; $route_path = 'wiki/';

Replace with:

Code:

$base_path = $this->base_path('admin') . '/admin.php?'; $route_path = 'vw/';

In the XenForo AdminCP, in development mode, go to Development > Navigation > Routes > Admin, click "wiki/" to edit. Change the Route Prefix to "vw" and Save.

Then, run the following MySQL query:

Code:

UPDATE xf_admin_navigation SET link = REPLACE(link, 'wiki/', 'vw/') WHERE addon_id = 'vw/vw'

Then, in the XenForo AdminCP, in development mode, go to Development > Navigation > Admin navigation, click any item to edit. Change the Route Prefix to something else, Save, then edit again, change the Route Prefix back to the original value, and Save.

The navigation in the AdminCP should now be deconflicted. We will work on adding a setting so this can be done much more easily in future versions.

If you don't see the Wiki admin menu in the navigation list, possibly you are not a Super Administrator. In that case, a Super Administrator will need to edit your user account's administrator permissions and grant it the "Manage VaultWiki" permission.

Thanks. Done all that but I am not seeing the Vault Wiki navigation. I am a Super Administrator. I do not see anywhere a Manage VaultWiki permission though.

If you are Super Administrator, then the admin navigation should be showing. I have tested and having the same text (such as two navigation items named "Wiki") still shows both navigation items.

The way I had no navigation showing was when the add-on was disabled. Please double-check that you or another admin did not disable the add-on. If it's disabled, the code for the navigation will be blocked.

OK, I went back through your instructions to confirm I did them correctly. All is good up to after the sql update. When I read that I assumed you meant Development > Navigation > Routes > Admin, but, I see you stated Development > Navigation > Admin navigation. But, if I go to Admin navigation none of the items have a route prefix. I did go to the first one and followed the instructions the first time.

Anyway, no sign of the menu and the addon is enabled.

Even though it turned out not to be necessary in this case, we have added an option to the next release under VaultWiki: Site Config allowing administrators to modify the XenForo admin route that points to VaultWiki's admin pages. By default, this will be set to "wiki" as it was hardcoded in previous versions.
