is there a way to write code for index page from scratch in Odoo 8?
As far as I can see, I cannot redefine route through #http.route (for example #http.route('/', website=True)) and I don't want to change original code in addon neither.
So if I want to add drag'n'drop place on my index page, I'll have to write custom snippet, is that right ?

I have some data that I need to pass to every website views in Odoo. The problem is that I don't know the proper way to do that. I have thought about manually add them to every render method, but it doesn't feel right for me. And it violated DRY, of course.
I am using Odoo 12. Thank for your help!!
every page of odoo call website.layout template (for header & footer) so you can place your data in layout template and it will available in every page
Title says it all. I want to create a custom prestashop page, but I don't know how.
What I actually want to do: create a button that opens a custom page. I can't find anything useful in the internet so I came here to ask for help. Could someone explain me how to do that?
There are many ways to add a new page, it depending in your needs.
By a CMS page, you can add the content you need in the HTML editor, like the product description: http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/CMS+-+Managing+Static+Content
By a front controller from a module: https://devdocs.prestashop.com/1.7/modules/concepts/controllers/front-controllers/

The point 1 is the most easy way for a common user, the rest of the points require advanced knowledge.
I have added a side bar like this one onto a CDE dashboard.
https://bootsnipp.com/snippets/featured/responsive-navigation-menu
Now the sidebar needs to be on every page listed on the menu.
What is the best way to go about this?
I could copy it on every single dash board - it works but it's not great especially if I need to change stg ex-post.
Create an "index" page with the side bar and an iframe to display the "sub" dashboards?
Create a widget (I tried but no success so far)
Custom component?
I think I solved the problem by using jquery load like these guys did.

I'm newbie in CakePHP and I have a few questions.
I'm trying to set up my first CakePHP website, and I want to display menu with links in my layout. I've created model called MenuItem, then I've created controller "MenuItemsController" and then a function show. When I access /menuitems/show/ all my links are displayed. So here's the problem. I want do call this controller in my layout so links will be visible on every subpage. First question is how to call this controller, and second how will output look like ? Do I have to create view for this cotroller if I don't want to use /menuitems/show/ or it's okay to set controller to output just array of data ?
Thank you!
First question is how to call this controller, and second how will output look like ?
Use requestAction() to request the data from the view OR better, set it based on the page you're on in your AppController::beforeFfilter() method.
In your layout simply use an element $this->element('menu'); and use the set data in it or, if you go for requestAction() do this call inside the element, you can even cache the element.
Read the links to the CakePHP book in the text, the book contains example code as well.
I am confused when I should use a custom widget or renderPartial in my view files. Sometimes I use widget and sometimes I use renderPartial.
Widget
You use widget when your application logic is defined in a separate CLASS file and the logic is somehow separated and standalone.
Widget's are chosen when the functionality is repeatedly used elsewhere, on lot of pages.
renderPartial
You use renderPartial for VIEW files that you want to embed into something bigger, or when you want to print something without using the application layouts.
renderPartial is chosen when all the variables it need to access are already prepared in the current action.
Widget
You can use widget when your site has some common part like header and footer or sometime some kind filter which require on every page of site.
renderPartial
Take example of search form of yii crude which is called by using renderPartial because that serach form is changing according to requirement of pages.
Sorry for english.
