Adding Show Config icon to Sitecore Launchpad

Previously I wrote about adding Unicorn to Sitecore LaunchPad to be available for admin users. This time I am adding one more tool icon - Show Config that leads admin users to the page where they can see patched and merged configuration that is used by given Sitecore instance

No more need to remember and manually type https://instance.hostname/sitecore/admin/showConfig.aspx URL in order to access it.

You may download the installation package at the bottom of this blog post.


The actual button item is located in core database under the following path: /sitecore/client/Applications/Launchpad/PageSettings/Buttons/Tools/Show Config.

Download ready to use package (19.7kb, keep in mind that Unicorn icon will be shown to admin users only).
