Sonataadminbundle: Multiple admin section for same entity

Question

I have entity class Page with column type=integer. When I do:

Answer 1

You certainly found your solution, but another way to do this would be to create a parent class and inherit using inheritance mapping. You are then able to have different repository and sonata admin would not work differently.

Answer 2

I don't have enough reputation to add a comment to the previous answer, but it is missing the following information:

You also need to define a unique $baseRouteName value in addition to $baseRoutePattern in your admin classes:

protected $baseRouteName = 'admin_vendor_bundlename_adminclassname';

protected $baseRoutePattern = 'unique-route-pattern';

You only need to do this to one class, but consider doing it in both to keep it clear what's going on.

Answer 3

Sonata creates routes automatically based on your entity names. So if you have 2 admin classes, there is a conflict. You have to configure different route pattern.

Add this property to Main\ProgramBundle\Admin\GroupAdmin.php:

protected $baseRouteName = 'page_group';
protected $baseRoutePattern = 'page-group';
