Extenders Menu Placement

Extenders is the admin category for installed addon surfaces that are not core system destinations.

Placement Rule

An addon should appear in Admin through its declared admin menu contract. It should not require a hand-edited sidebar entry.

Current Extenders behavior groups enabled addon declarations into type buckets, such as Business, then links to each addon admin view from that bucket page.

Addon Declaration Should Include

  • admin category: `extenders` when the addon is an extender
  • admin type: a stable bucket such as `business`, `content`, or `tools`
  • route or view target for the addon admin page
  • visible labels for nav, actions, and quick access when supported
  • sort order only when the addon has a real placement reason

When Not To Use Extenders

Do not force core platform surfaces into Extenders. Content, Design, Users and Access, Addons, System, and Tools remain system-owned categories.
