@title Profile Menu User Guide
@group userguide
Master profile menus for projects and other objects.
Overview
========
Some objects, like projects, have customizable menus called "profile menus".
This guide discusses how to add, remove, reorder, configure and extend these
menus.
Supported Applications
======================
These applications currently support profile menus:
-| Application | Support |
-|-----|-----|
-| Projects | Full |
-| People | //Read-Only// |
-
-
-Collapsing and Expanding
-========================
-
-To collapse a full-width profile menu, click
-{nav icon="angle-left", name="Collapse"}. To expand a narrow menu, click
-{nav icon="angle-right", name="Expand"}.
-
-If you're logged in, this setting is sticky, and all menus will respect your
-preference.
+| Application | Customization | Support |
+|-----|-----|-----|
+| Home | Global/Personal | Full |
+| Projects | Per Project | Full |
+| Favorites Menu | Global/Personal | Full |
+| People | None | //Read-Only// |
Editing Menus
=============
You can only edit an object's menu if you can edit the object. For example, you
must have permission to edit a project in order to reconfigure the menu for the
project.
-To edit a menu, click {nav icon="cogs", name="Manage"} in the menu, then click
+To edit a menu, click {nav icon="cogs", name="Manage"} or {nav icon="pencil",
+name="Edit ..."} in the menu itself. If you are an administrator and the
+application supports Global/Personal customization, you'll have the option
+of editing either the Global settings or your own Personal menu, otherwise click
{nav icon="th-list", name="Edit Menu"}. This brings you to the menu
configuration interface which allows you to add and remove items, reorder the
menu, edit existing items, and choose a default item.
Menus are comprised of a list of items. Some of the items are builtin
(for example, projects have builtin "Profile", "Workboard" and "Members"
items). You can also add custom items. Builtin and custom items mostly
behave in similar ways, but there are a few exceptions (for example, you can
not completely delete builtin items).
Adding Items
============
To add new items to a menu, use {nav icon="cog", name="Configure Menu"} and
choose a type of item to add. See below for more details on available items.
You can also find a link to this documentation in the same menu, if you want
to reference it later.
Reordering Items
================
To reorder items, drag and drop them to the desired position. Your changes
will be reflected in the item ordering in the menu.
Setting a Default
=================
The default item controls what content is shown when a user browses to the
object's main page. For example, the default item for a project controls where
the user ends up when they click a link to the project from another
application.
To choose a default item, click {nav icon="thumb-tack", name="Make Default"}.
Not all kinds of items can be set as the default item. For example, you can not
set a separator line as a default because the item can't be selected and has no
content.
If no default is explicitly selected, or a default is deleted or disabled, the
first item which is eligible to be a default is used as the default item.
Removing Items
==============
To remove items, click the {nav icon="times", name="Delete"} action.
Builtin items can not be deleted and have a
{nav icon="times", name="Disable"} action instead, which will hide them but
not delete them. You an re-enable a disabled item with the
-{nav icon="plus', name="Enable"} action.
+{nav icon="plus", name="Enable"} action.
A few items can not be hidden or deleted. For example, the
{nav icon="cogs", name="Manage"} item must always be available in the menu
because if you hid it by accident there would no longer be a way to access
the configuration interface and fix the mistake.
Removing or hiding an item does not disable the underlying functionality.
For example, if you hide the "Members" item for a project, that just removes
it from the menu. The project still has members, and users can still navigate
to the members page by following a link to it from elsewhere in the application
or entering the URI manually.
Editing Items
=============
To edit an item, click the name of the item. This will show you available
configuration for the item and allow you to edit it.
Which properties are editable depends on what sort of item you are editing.
Most items can be renamed, and some items have more settings available. For
example, when editing a link, you can choose the link target and select an
icon for the item.
A few items have no configuration. For example, visual separator lines are
purely cosmetic and have no available settings.
Available Items
===============
When you add items, you can choose between different types of items to add.
Which item types are available depends on what sort of object you are editing
the menu for, but most objects support these items:
- - {icon link} **Link**: Allows you to create an item which links to
- somewhere else in Phabricator, or to an external site.
+
- {icon minus} **Divider**: Adds a visual separator to the menu. This is
purely cosmetic.
- - {icon coffee} **Motivator**: Motivate your employees with inspirational
- quotes. A new quote every day!
+ - {icon map-marker} **Label**: Lets you label sections of menu items.
+ This is also purely cosmetic.
+ - {icon link} **Link**: Allows you to create an item which links to
+ somewhere else in Phabricator, or to an external site.
+ - {icon plus} **Form**: Provides quick access to custom and built-in forms
+ from any application that supports EditEngine.
+ - {icon briefcase} **Projects**: Provides quick access to a project.
+ - {icon globe} **Applications**: Provides quick access to your favorite
+ applications. Can be renamed.
+ - {icon tachometer} **Dashboard**: Provides quick access to your favorite
+ dashboard. These items will display with the current nav on the item
+ you've attached it to.
+
To learn more about how an item works, try adding it. You can always delete
it later if it doesn't do what you wanted.
+Dashboard Integration
+=====================
+
+Dashboards are directly integrated with Profile Menus. If you add a Dashboard
+to a Project or to a Home menu, that Dashboard will be presented in the
+context of that menu. This allows customization of different pages of content
+without having the user leave Home or the Project.
+
+
Writing New Item Types
======================
IMPORTANT: This feature is not stable, and the API is subject to change.
To add new types of items, subclass @{class:PhabricatorProfileMenuItem}.
