Hi guys,
I'm trying to add a new section like the 'Content', 'Members', 'Settings' sections in the backend. I believe I need to change something in the Dashboard.config file but I must be doing something wrong as its not working!
Does anybody have a complete sample config I can look at that does the same so I can see the error of my ways!
Also, how to you go about changing the icon thats displayed?
Thanks!

Do you mean like this? http://www.umbraco.org/documentation/books/what's-new-in-v3/enhancement-dashboard-now-supports-tabsThe "dashboard" area is the big blank section on the right. The "sections" area is the little box in the lower-right. The "treeview" area is, err, the treeview in the upper-left. I don't know how to add an entirely new section. Niels does it with the umbraco stats package. Maybe someone who is familiar with the source code could explain how new sections can be created? cheers, doug.

Hi Both,
Thanks guys. I think I see how this is working now. I need to add entries into the umbracoApp + umbracoAppAlias tables for my custom section.
Then I need my custom class implementiing the ITree interface coupled with some custom controls and I'm away, easy lol !
