ACP Tab

In my opinion, I love it when you click the Admin CP, and it opens a new tab for you to go in. Can you guys make it like this? Clicking Admin CP and making it go to ACP on the same page is so annoying.

I rather like it the new way. Using FF, all I have to do is right click on it and tell it to open in a new tab if I want to do that, otherwise it reuses the same tab and more times than not, that's what I want to do.

It's funny... the opening in a new tab thing used to bother me, but now that it's gone, I miss it. :P *suggests setting*

Would be great if that can be in the settings.
*Enable opening a new page for Admin CP?* No - Yes

If you did that then you would get people saying can we have setting to open other board links like Members, Blogs, Tracker, Calendar, Gallery, Help etc etc ;)

Web standards specify that no link should automatically open in a new window, as users should be able to decide how to open a window themselves using the features in their browser.

Or the forum can tell if your using a browser that can use tabs, and if so opens based on browser setting. Just an idea.

I just had a great idea from this thread! What about making the ACP another "module" similar to forums and members and stuff, and display it inside a tab for easy use and access:

That would be pretty cool.

That would be an awesome security hole! :D Imagine, being able to easily defeat the purpose of renaming the admin folder by just putting it up for display on the board's menu bar! Wonderful!

...what are you talking about?!?

^1.

Of course it would only be visible to admins, like it is right now...
