$currentindex keeps count of which tab page is currently selected

 

let me check the other...

[PascalVG]

OK:

* @global string $currentIndex Current URL in order to keep current Tab

 

As said, keeps track of currently selected tab.

 

Identifier seems to be the type of page (i.e. database 'table') you are currently editing. Probably has contents of 'product', 'category', etc.

 

Hope this helps,

pascal

Thank you pascalVG for the help , I think that those variable get used in the URL for the BO !

[PascalVG]

Yes, I think that currentindex is used when you press the button 'save and stay', so that it knows WHERE to stay.

 

Can we mark it as solved?
