What's the best way to add an admin section?

I'm creating a custom feature for a client; the feature is an ad management tool, and I want to also allow the client to view reports directly from the admin section of mojoportal.

Is there a way to add a config file to install the link to the admin pages for this feature only when it's installed?

You can add links to the admin menu as described here:

when packaging your feature you can add the config files in your package so they land in the correct place when your feature is deployed.

Hope it helps,

Joe
