Hi Odoo developers,

I'm following the "Building a module" tutorial from Odoo webpage, and I was wondering if I can bind a window action to a first level menu in the sidebar, because I don't want to create a child menu to do this.

<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="action_openacademy_list_courses">
      <field name="name">Cursos</field>
      <field name="res_model">openacademy.course</field>
      <field name="view_type">form</field>
      <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
</record>

<menuitem id="openacademy_menu_root" name="Open Academy" sequence="1"/>
<menuitem id="openacademy_menu_coursesroot" name="Course Management"
    parent="openacademy_menu_root" 
    action="action_openacademy_list_courses"/>

In the above source code, the "Course Management" menu is a first level menu in the sidebar, but although a window action is associated to it, I can't click in this menu to trigger the action. Is it possible to do this?.

Thank you.

Thank you for your answer Jèrèmy, but what changes should I do in the file addons/web/views/webclient_templates.xml?. I located your code starting in line 162 in this file.

not by default.

Except if you hack the default code here /addons/web/views/webclient_templates.xml

~L160


<div class="oe_secondary_menu_section">
  <t t-esc="menu['name']"/>
</div>
<t t-call="web.menu_secondary_submenu"/>

------------------

EDIT: a sample code

It just an idea/method... but you can do all what you want...

In this case, if we have only one children, we do the link on the top menu ...

(Patch here : http://pastesha.re/OjIF?diff)

                                 <t t-foreach="menu['children']" t-as="menu">
+                                    <t t-set='current_menu' t-value="menu" />
                                     <div class="oe_secondary_menu_section">
-                                        <t t-esc="menu['name']"/>
+                                        <t t-if="len(current_menu['children']) == 1">
+                                            <t t-set='menu' t-value="menu['children'][0]" />
+                                            <t t-call="web.menu_link"/>
+                                        </t>
+                                        <t t-if="len(current_menu['children']) != 1">
+                                            <t t-esc="menu['name']"/>
+                                        </t>
                                     </div>
                                     <t t-call="web.menu_secondary_submenu"/>
                                 </t>
