Add an "Edit" Tab to Every Block

Last modified: August 18, 2009 - 05:48

This snippet builds on another snippet about "Add an Edit this Block link". Instead of a link this goes further to have the edit link look like the tabs for View, Edit, etc. Here is the code to include in your theme's block.tpl.php file:

<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta; ?>" class="clear-block block block-<?php print $block->module ?>">

<?php
 
if ($block->module == 'block'):
    if (
user_access('administer blocks')) :?>

    <div id="tabs-wrapper">
      <ul class="tabs primary">
        <li class="active">
          <a class="active" href='<?php print check_url(base_path()) ?>admin/build/block/configure/<?php print $block->module;?>/<?php print $block->delta;?>'>Edit</a>
        </li>
      </ul>
    </div>
    <?php
   
endif;
  endif;
?>


<?php if (!empty($block->subject)): ?>
  <h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2>
<?php endif;?>

  <div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>

If the core style sheets are being loaded this should produce an "Edit" tab above each block for users who have "administer blocks" privileges.
