Advanced module constants

Gumster

I'm trying to hammer the Sphider search indexer configuration into an advanced module. However, the only means I have found of getting the constants loaded (from "modules/sphider/config/sphider_constants.php") is to add the module to the "modules_allowed" array in MY_Fuel.php. That adds an entry in the Tools navigation too.

Am I correct in getting constants for a module loaded this way? I'm undecided if the entry in the Tools is desirable or not, but I probably only want one entry in the left admin navigation, so is there a means of hiding the Module nav entry, or vice versa, hiding the one in Tools?

You are correct in loading the constants.

Not sure why it's ending up in the tools nav.
Where the nav ends up is to do with the $config['nav'] in your /config/[your_module].php file

You don't have something like:

$config['nav']['tools']['tools/my_module'] = lang('my_module')

Anywhere? If so you'd want something more like

$config['nav']['crm'] = array( 'crm/clients' => lang('crm_nav_clients'), 'crm/invoicecomments' => lang('crm_nav_invoice_comments'), 'crm/invoices' => lang('crm_nav_invoices'), 'crm/payments' => lang('crm_nav_payments'), 'crm/proposals' => lang('crm_nav_proposals'), 'crm/settings' => lang('crm_nav_settings') );
