Hi,

Ive created an extension following the tutorial (  
[http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Creating\_Radiant\_Extensions](http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Creating_Radiant_Extensions)).  
My extension adds an extra tab next next to Pages, Layouts, Snippets -  
that  
works, and when I click on the tab it DOES show the layout that I have  
created, but without the Radiant header with the tabs and so forth.

In the tutorial, the screenshots of the ‘linkroll’ show the standard  
radiant  
header.  
I want the header!

Anyone have any ideas what im doing wrong, or what I need to do to see  
the  
header?

Thanks!

Topher,

Make sure you haven’t specified a layout in your controller. The  
default layout (application.rhtml) will be used if you don’t specify  
one.
