Hi,
I am new to umbraco. Can anyone please tell me how can I add my own sections in the backend? For example, I want Products Management section there in the sections part, how can I do it?
Thanks in advance!
Shahid

There is some RSS package which is a pretty good sample how to extend the backend. http://www.cpalm.dk/blog/2006/06/07/umbraco-rss-package.aspx

Hi Sjors,
Can't we extend the backend using the open source code provided by umbraco for download?
Thanks,
Shahid

Offcourse you can, as long as you make sure you don't break the license rules.
If you doubt, mail Niels (or ask on the forum). Basically you can do almost everything you want, even commercial, but what's not allowed is to Rebrand the CMS (IE changing the logo's of umbraco). If you want that, i believe its possible to buy a Commercial license.

Thanks for your reply,
Can you please give me any startup guide for extending the sections and adding my own sections in backend?
Thanks,

Sahid there i a ecommerce extension for Umbraco, is that maybe what you want?
As far as i know there is not too much documentation about extending the backend, i think the fastest way to implement this, is too look how things are working now, so copy/paste a entire section and tweak it till it is what you want ;)

Take a look at these 2 tables: umbracoApp ( looks like these are the sections ) umbracoAppTree ( and these the section 'folders' ) Then you also have the /umbraco/config/create/UI.xml file ( i think this is needed to config the create dialog )
