I know there is a way to add menu items manually (http://drupal.org/node/483892), but I was wondering if there was a plan to support items from the Devel module, i.e. similar to how the Administration Menu module includes them.

That would be awesome. Perhaps we could reuse the code from admin_menu?

I took a quick look at this and it should be fairly simple -- I'm going to postpone this for post 1.0 release cycle but it's on my list for the next iteration.

Even if there was just an option to reset the cache that would be extremely useful.

I agree with this...
I've spent a bit more time today getting accustomed to this module/theme for the backend, and it really is great, thanks for the hard work...

The ONE thing that I really need before I can turn off the admin_menu module is the ability to Flush All Caches, and all the items under that sub-menu, and the ability to run cron and run update.php right from the menu. Those are the tools I use the very most from the admin_menu module.

Somehow including them, while allowing to have the admin_menu module to either be turned off, or hidden would be great. In my "best" case, I'd like to just replace admin_menu all together with the extra features it offers.

I agree about the admin_menu module, this module is very close, taking it further to include the items mentioned above would make it one less module to have to activate.

+1. This is a killer feature for me.

One workaround in the meantime is to manually add the links yourself. There is a menu called "Admin" and you can add the links there. Here are some example URLs to add as menu items:

  • admin/settings/devel (main Devel settings page)
  • devel/cache/clear (clear the cache)
  • update.php (run update.php)

Note: Be sure to check the box at the bottom "Display in admin menu" if you want the item to appear in the top toolbar, otherwise it will only appear in the side menu.

Another nice one to have is an item to clear the theme registry, though I couldn't find a proper URL to use for this.

I know I can flush all caches easily but I want the ability to flush the theme registry easily, a la admin_menu
