In 1.2 we moved the admin menu from the top of the page, to the left side of the page. We also added "flyout" behaviour to all subnav items. As such, all navigation items are now present on all pages. This has 2 main effects.

admin menu before and after

Firstly, _sub_menu.html.erb is gone and all subnav partials (e.g., _product_sub_menu.html.erb) are used in a single place _tabs.html.erb instead of being added to each relevant page individually.

Secondly, with the concurrent change to Capybara's matching mode from :prefer_exact to :smart (see 1.2 changelog) tests which before relied on submenu items not being rendered on the page will fail.

  • Any changes you have made to top level nav items are probably fine.
  • Remove all of your <%= render 'spree/admin/shared/X_sub_menu' %>.
  • Add any submenu templates you have created to _tabs.html.erb.
  • Upgrade solidus_auth_devise
  • FIXING TESTS
