This past week we have been working on documenting how to add icons and groups to cPanel without using our plugin generator.ย Writing DynamicUI files is a direct and flexible approach to adding custom groups, icons and extra logic not available through the plugin generator (boolean ExpVar checks, etc).ย During the course of documenting this, we realized that we also needed to document the variables available within the cPanel interface.ย These are referred to as ExpVar variables.ย These variable expressions internally parse the given reference and return the appropriate module output or dataset value. Example returns from ExpVar variables include information like configuration information, account limits and language tags.ย Very handy for creating your own cPanel interface.
Adding Icons and Groups to the cPanel Interface – This document is used for learning how to customize icons & groups within cPanel.ย Icons and Groups can be customized on a per-reseller or per-branding package basis.
DynamicUI Reference – This table explains all of the variables available within the DynamicUI system in a handy small reference-chart format.
ExpVar Reference – This table explains all of the variables available within the cPanel interface.ย These can be used in DynamicUI keys, inside of >cpanelif< tags and inside of <cpanel print=โโ> tags.
