I had created a view for audio nodes, saved and added the iTunes information. Later, when I returned to the view to make some edits, I did not see the iTunes tab again.

After some confusion and tweaking of the view for 15-20 minutes, it took a look at the module to realize that the tab only covers one way of accessing the edit view form - through the Administer views form.

In other words,

/admin/build/views/myview/edit

shows the tab link to

/admin/build/views/myview/itunes

If you just load the view's page by it's own URL,

/myview/edit

you get no iTunes tab.

Now, since the view's page url can be anything, the callback can't be hard-coded in the menu, as it is now. There's a hook_views_views_tabs that seems like something to pursue, but there's no documentation and I don't have the time to look into it further right now.

But even if this isn't fixed right away, it certainly should be documented, just to avoid confusion.

Regards,

Roger

roger, yeah they added that multiple url thing after i wrote that module. if you want to roll a patch that adds another menu item i'd totally commit that.

ok, I'll take a look, but I won't have the chance to do it immediately, that's why I wanted to post something about it.
