It's often useful to be able to go directly to the backend to edit a page while browsing your site. You can make such a link in Wolf by copying this code into a snippet (filter set to ”-none-”):

<?php
 
    // Check there's a user session
    AuthUser::load();
 
    // Check the user is logged in and has EITHER the administrator role or the my_new_role role.
    if (AuthUser::isLoggedIn() && AuthUser::hasPermission('administrator,my_new_role')) {
 
        $url = BASE_URL.'admin/page/edit/'.$this->id();
        echo '<span class="quickedit"><a href="'.$url.'">Edit this page</a></span>';
    }
?>

Save the snippet as 'quickedit', and call the snippet in your layout with:

<?php $this->includeSnippet('quickedit'); ?>

where you want your edit link to appear.

You could also:

• add some CSS rules for the .quickedit class;
• use usernames instead of roles (see the original forum thread);
• add another condition to limit the appearance of the “Edit this page” link to certain branches of your site;
• etc.!

Thanks to Ormente for this suggestion!
