#### Add Shortcuts to the Control Panel Sidebar

[](#add-shortcuts-to-the-control-panel-sidebar)

Overview
--------

[](#overview)

This plugin adds the functionality to add simple shortcut-links to the sidebar in the control panel of Craft CMS.
This is useful for quick access to various plugins or other important stuff! For example if you have a a settings page from plugin that you visit often, like "cage/settings/appearance", you can add a Shortcut to the sidebar and get there with just one simple click, instead of three!

I originally made this plugin just for myself, as a little time-saver, but I found it so useful that I wanted to share it!

Roadmap
-------

[](#roadmap)

Some things to do, and ideas for potential features:

- Set the position of the shortcuts (top, bottom, above settings, ...)
- Define custom icons for the shortcuts (maybe?)
- Show different shortcuts for different roles (maybe?)
