Adding a custom button (or any control) to "Create new entry" or "Edit entry" dialog

DT Proger

Is there any worked example(s) somewhere on the web that demonstrates how to add a custom button (or any kind of control for that matter) onto the "Create new entry" or "Edit entry" light-box dialog of the Editor?

Thank you in advance for your response.

It depends where you want to add the button. There are three options I can think of:

• Into the footer of the light box - use buttons()
• Into the form as a field - use a custom field plug-in
• Add it to an existing field - use field().node() to get the node for the field and insert as required. Or use a custom field plug-in.
