I created a post module and I am trying to create the new and edit admin pages.
I used this tutorial for the admin grid however the create button and edit functions are not working
I am able to create custom admin pages, however I am sure there must be an easier way.
Code:
Block:
<?php
namespace Mageplaza\HelloWorld\Block\Adminhtml;
class Post extends \Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Grid\Container
{
protected function _construct()
{
$this->_controller = 'adminhtml_post';
$this->_blockGroup = 'Mageplaza_HelloWorld';
$this->_headerText = __('Posts');
$this->_addButtonLabel = __('Create New Post');
parent::_construct();
}
}
Layout file:
