Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Would it make sense if the bean type administration links mirrored those of content types. ie.
Structure
- Content Types
- Content type 1
- Edit
- Delete
- Manage Fields
- Manage Display
- Blocks
- Block Types
- Block type 1
- Edit
- Delete
- Manage Fields
- Manage Display
Currently the only way to get to these links for each Bean Type is to go through the List page.

Comment #3
indytechcook CreditAttribution: indytechcook commentedSo the first step is here: #1356088: Change Path for block types
But i'm not sure exactly why the admin menus are not being created. The menu_router and menu_links table structure are the same.

alexweber CreditAttribution: alexweber commentedAs far as I know this is more a limitation of the Entity API's automagic Admin UI stuff than anything else. Check our profile2, they have exactly the same problem. I've just been playing with custom entities this weekend and hit the same roadblock, it's kind of annoying.

Thanks for the comment but it really doesn't apply here. I don't use entity api amin ui because it requires your bundles being entities themselves. So it should be possible. I did look into it at one time, I even modeled it exactly like ctypes but I couldn't get it to work.
Comment #6
alexweber CreditAttribution: alexweber commented@indytechcook I see... Fair enough! :)
Comment #7
barraponto CreditAttribution: barraponto commentedI've fixed the page titles in admin/structure/manage/%bean-type, block/add/%bean-type and block/edit/%bean_delta. I spent a lot of time trying to get the breadcrumbs straight for the admin/structure/manage/%bean-type/{fields,display} but I couldn't understand why it was broken. So I patched a workaround using hook_menu_breadcrumb_alter. It is not pretty, but it works.

alexweber CreditAttribution: alexweber commented@barraponto, I've reviewed the patch and it doesn't seem to address the issue :S
It does, however, address another bug. You should open another issue for this patch!
Comment #10
alexweber CreditAttribution: alexweber commentedAttached is a patch that adds the menu structure suggested by the OP. It doesn't have the Manage Fields/Display links yet.
It isn't as slick as what the authors were trying to do, using token replacements in the menu path but works just the same! :)
Comment #11
indytechcook CreditAttribution: indytechcook commentedThanks! Looks good. Setting to RTBC so remember to push.
@alexweber woudl you mind elaborating on what bug @barraponto was fixing?
Comment #12
indytechcook CreditAttribution: indytechcook commentedFixed in RC4 http://drupal.org/node/1538818
Comment #13
alexweber CreditAttribution: alexweber commented@indytechcook yeah np it was something about breadcrumbs being off, but that should be fixed as a side effect of this patch :)
The other issue was this one #1537456: Better titles for bean/add/%bean-type and bean/edit/%bean-delta
