Using a custom renamed shell component

[pchemguy]

I wanted to have login/logout buttons as menu-item elements, so I modified slightly the shell component. Now, the modification appears to be well-localized, but to stay safe I renamed it to shell_ex . The shell component contains the "core" HTML structure and should only be used once. If I call my modified/renamed shell_ex component, may it cause any issues with that page (it appears OK so far, and I am planning to post the details later)?

Hi !
Indeed, and component with a name that starts with shell will be treated as a shell component, and can be used in place of the default shell. SQLPage embeds two shells by default: shell and shell-empty.
What modifications did you do to the shell ? If you think they could be useful to others, please open a pull request to merge them here !

Thanks for the clarification.

I am cleaning my mini demo that includes a number of features I explored. I will make a demo repo first, or perhaps, an folder inside examples. Then we can discuss how to proceed from there.
