I've spent about an hour messing with this and must be overlooking the obvious. I can't seem to get the control panel to replace the default administer page as in the screenshot for the original announcement for the module.

Using 4.6.3, when first turned on, the control panel shows up in the navigation menu as link "control panel." That works fine in that it properly displays all of the icons. However, it does not have the expanded menu underneath that the administer menu does. I've tried various url aliasing options.

I can get part of the way there by aliasing control_panel to admin. But that does some weird thing where the control panel menu option starts duplicating itself even when disabled.

I have also tried moving all of the admin sub menu items underneath control panel. However, when I do that and then turn off the administer menu option, the control panel icons disappear.

Any suggestions?

Works great now. +1 for an optional control panel in core one day.

You absolutely need to enable the menu module for this to work. I wish it said in the readme that it needs the menu module. I guess the author thinks most people got this enabled and didn't bother to tell in the readme.
