Alan Storm: Magento Admin Hello World Revisited
My original Magento articles weren’t based on a mystical deep knowledge of the system — they were plain old trial, error, and analysis. For the most part I figured out what the core team was on about, but every so often I’d come up with something that worked but was a massive misuse of the system. Using a custom front name for admin pages was one of those mistakes. We regret the error.
