Why aren't my adminCP options showing navigation or highlighting correct navigation tab?

[TheBigK]

I was able to get my addon's adminCP options listed as expected. I created an admin navigation link to show the options under Applications-> Contact US.

However, upon clicking on the option, the focus of the tab shifts to 'Home' instead of staying on 'Applications'. I'm not sure what's it that I'm missing?

Also - there are no navigation links as expected.

Did you set up your route correctly?

To be a bit more specific than this, the third parameter of $router->getRouteMatch should be the same as the ID of your navigation tab that you created.

This is something I need to explore.

The $majorSection parameter in the routematch should be set to 'applications' for the applications tab.

My new code is this:

public function match($routePath, Zend_Controller_Request_Http $request, XenForo_Router $router)
{
$action = $router->resolveActionWithStringParam($routePath, $request, 'addContactDepartment');
return $router->getRouteMatch('ContactUs_ControllerAdmin_Index', $action, 'applications');
}

I do get the correct tab selected, but the navigation links at the top of the title terminates at 'Applications >' , instead of 'Applications > Contact Us'. What step am I missing?

Setting up the breadcrumb and page title in your admin template. Take a look at the other templates. On mobile or I'd give an example

Thanks, Jake. Adding this to my template did the job, but not sure if it's the right way -

<xen:navigation>
<xen:breadcrumb>ContactUs</xen:breadcrumb>
</xen:navigation>
