Hi, and thanx for the reply!

The code itself is trivial indeed. I have had a look at the admin templates, but really need some pointers on how to go about it. For instance: I can add an item to the menu under the setup tab, but don't know how to create the content page for the link.

I have the code the does exactly what I need, I just don't know how to add it to the admin interface (cause I can't add content the way I add content to the user site). So I guess the real question is: how can I link the template to a url in the admin interface?

this can't be too hard, can it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, I think that you will need to add a new module to the ezpublish kernel. A module is composed of Business logic(php code) and User Interface(template). Look at BL examples in kernel/ directory. The code in the business logic calls template to generate output. Start by looking at the notification module as is it quite simple. Start from the module definition /kernel/moduleName/module.php, this does the link with other BL files.

Hope this help,
