Site Settings Extended
This module extends the Site Settings module by offering two distinct layout options for administrative settings: a single form with vertical tabs or a core configuration page layout that lists settings with descriptions. You can choose to open these settings in modals or new pages.
This module provides some different layouts/functionality to the excellent Site Settings module.
Mainly, a complete overhaul of the layout is added.
There are two options:
- Single form
- Core config pages
Single form
The single form layout adds all options in vertical tabs, this can however become quite a big form and is usually only recommended for smaller collections of settings.
Core config pages
The core config pages layout uses a page with links like a core config overview page.
You can add more information by setting up the "menu_description" view mode, this will be rendered as the description (useful for "multiple" items, for example social links: "facebook", "instagram", ... labels could be rendered as the description).
Then you can choose to either open settings in modals or open them in new pages.
When opening settings forms in modals, you should definitely make use of the patch in the issue linked below, otherwise media library modals will wreck functionality.
