I'm modifying the administrator panel in Joomla and when a user press "Save and close" in the edit module i want it to redirect to /administrator, not /administrator/index.php?option=com_modules.

Is this posible? I have searched in /administrator/includes and administrator/components/mod_modules/module/view.php, and have found where the class is and where it is executed, but no luck yet.

My understanding for PHP is small, so keep it simple.

    Why would you want to do this, may I ask? – Lodder Oct 5 '15 at 14:18
  • Iam using Joomla for a infoscreen for a customer. I have made a custom controlpanel in the backend for him with a specifik ACL. I want to keep him on the frontpage of the backend :) – Kenneth Kjær Nielsen Oct 9 '15 at 6:33

Open the file ROOT/administrator/components/com_modules/controllers/module.php, and edit at about line 223 (right after parent::save($key, $urlVar);, and before the closing })

$this->setredirect('index.php');

Disclaimer: This is a core hack, and not recommended. Your changes will be lost when you update Joomla.
