Hello Magento Friends,
In this blog, we will learn How to Add a Custom Button in the Backend Category Page Section in Magento 2.
Customization in Magento admin helps to ease the admin work. Sometimes you need a custom button on the backend category page to perform some action. A custom button on the category page will simplify admin work as the admin can perform actions easily.
Follow the below steps to add a custom button in the backend category page section in Magento 2.
Steps to Add Custom Button in Backend Category Page Section in Magento 2:
Step 1: First, we need to create a category form.xml file inside the extension at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\view\adminhtml\ui_component
Then add the code as follows
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Ui:etc/ui_configuration.xsd"> <fieldset name="search_engine_optimization" sortOrder="30"> <container name="custom_button_container" sortOrder="135"> <htmlContent name="html_content"> <argument name="block" xsi:type="object">Vendor\Extension\Block\Adminhtml\Category\Edit\Categorybutton</argument> </htmlContent> </container> </fieldset> </form> |
Note – You can change the fieldset reference as per your requirement to add a button in the category section. Here, we have taken the Search Engine Optimization fieldset section named “search_engine_optimization”.
Step 2: After that, we need to create a Categorybutton.php file inside the extension at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\Block\Adminhtml\Category\Edit
Then add the following code
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 |
<?php namespace Vendor\Extension\Block\Adminhtml\Category\Edit; class Categorybutton extends \Magento\Backend\Block\Template { protected $_template = 'Vendor_Extension::category/button.phtml'; public function __construct( \Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context, array $data = [] ) { parent::__construct($context, $data); } public function getButtonHtml() { $button = $this->getLayout()->createBlock('Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Button')->setData(['id' => 'custom_button', 'label' => __('Button Label'),'class'=>'action- scalable save primary']); return $button->toHtml(); } } |
Step 3: After that, we need to create a button.phtml file inside the extension at the following path.
app\code\Vendor\Extension\view\adminhtml\templates\category
And add the following code-snippet
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
<div class="admin__field" data-bind="css: $data.additionalClasses, attr: {'data-index': index}, visible: visible"> <div class="admin__field-control" style="text-align: center; padding: 5px 0px;"> <?php echo $block->getButtonHtml(); ?> </div> </div> |
Step 4: Once all files are created in your extension, you need to run Magento upgrade and deploy commands in your server.
Output:
You can see that the custom button is added to your category page in Magento 2 backend.
