Orange Hrm 3.1- adding new menu title to tab

Question

i m new to symfony framework , i m using orangehrm-3.1.1 i have added a new menu title in the second level tab , but i dont know how to navigate to the particualar href link. Please help me out with the steps.

Answer 1

Here is how I add menu item via database.

To add a menu in orangehrm there are 3 tables you should check:

• ohrm_screen
• ohrm_menu_item (the menu hierarchy)
• ohrm_user_role_screen (the user role permissions to specific screen)

First, add your link into ohrm_screen, specify your module_id and action_url (Check the module_id in ohrm_module).

After that add the screen into ohrm_menu_item table.

And then add new record in ohrm_user_role_screen with the allowed user_role_id and your screen_id, the can_read field should be 1 (true)

And finally try re-login to your application

Hope you can understand my messy english. :p

Answer 2

I don't know if you want the answer for your question still now. But I have solution for your question and for everyone who wants to add new tab in the orange HRM. Orange HRM is built in symfony framework, so without solid understanding of symfony framework it is difficult to change anything in orange HRM. Go to the file-/orangehrm3.1.1/symfony/plugins/orangehrmCorePlugin/lib/authorization/service/MenuService.php In this file you will find the main menu service .

Then go to the orangehrm database you will find ohrm_menu_item table and add the name of the menu you want to display.

Step 1: Check in which module do you want to add your menu module list is in ohrm_module table.

Step 2: Check under what user roll you want to add menu user roll is in ohrm_user_role.

Step 3: Add Screen on bases of module (step 1) insert data into ohrm_screen

step 4: Add Menu Item on bases of Screen (step 3) insert into ohrm_menu_item

Step 5: Assign screen to user on bases of user roll (step 2) and screen (step 3) insert into ohrm_user_role_screen

Step 6: Logout and login again. New menu will be there.

That's all
