Extending Magento

We worked through some details and nailed down the functionality, enabling complete control of press releases within the Magento framework. With this functionality fully integrated, the administrator finally had complete control of all the functions they wanted within their site, all accessed with one login in one place.

User Story

The administrator that desires to add a new Press Release via Magento will login and click on a new menu item under the CMS menu. After clicking on a “Add new item” the input screen will allow the administrator to select a type (is it a News Article or a Press Release?) and fill in the following fields: title, author, summary/excerpt, actual content, author biography, date to start displaying the item (the date to start displaying the item as a current item), expiration date (the date to change this item to an archived item), and status (enabled or disabled?).

The public site will display a slick menu that will allow the user to choose between News Articles and Press Releases.  Within the News Articles and Press Releases, the user has the option of selecting current articles or archived/expired articles.

DOWNLOAD

Now that we’ve gone through the trouble, we have contributed it to the community on Magento Connect.  At the time of writing, the extension is pending approval, but you can download and install it now by clicking here.
