Easy admin trying to gather common tasks of drupal sites to one, AJAXed and user friendly interface.
First feature is administration menu by flow - UI for both menus and the page linked to them. Which means you can edit the menu links (title, url, status, expanded) - but also the node page, taxonomy, view or comments. And all of this without to move from one page.

Demo:

You can see demonstration video here:

It's the flow, Idiot

This feature is for little and medium site's managers. They don't think in terms of nodes and menus, but in terms of "pages". Instead of educate them, let's give them UI for the way THEY sees their site.
By my experience, when you get used to it, you would'nt want to go back.
p.s. For bonus, you can edit any menu you want on-the-fly. See second image.

Future features

The module is now just prototype. If I would get positive feedback there is a lot good features to add. For example:

  1. Copy and paste of menu items, nodes, users etc.
  2. Tagging by drag n' drop include validation.
  3. Adding modules as book or Panels to the same usability.
  4. Creating view formatter which would give ability to add editable fields by view without need to write JS

To try it:

  1. Clone it, or (if you are not familiar with git) download it from here: http://melech.anysite-israel.com/easy_admin/easy_admin.zip (I would try to update it routinely)
  2. Enable the module.
  3. Configure permissions: administer easy admin,
    using easy admin, and edit nodes,comments,terms, etc
  4. Go to YOURDOMAIN.COM/admin/config/user-interface/easy_admin
  5. Add at least one menu with "Advanced edit" or "Both" enabled.
  6. Now you can edit menu on-the-fly (right click on any menu item) or go to advanced edit, from on-the-fly contextmenu or from edit menu tabs.
  7. Advanced edit can now administer nodes, taxonomy pages, comments and views.
  8. You can override theme functions but be wary: it may break JS usability.

For now, the project is D7 only.

I would appreciate any feedback!
