   Ok,

   Currently I have a function which adds a submenu to the Appearance admin section called Opening Times.

   What I'd really like to have though is another section like Appearance but called Theme Settings, then I can add Opening Times, Description etc to it and create a whole sub section for that particular template. I've looked at the codex but I can't get my head around it as it's more geared towards plugins - can anyone help add to the code to try and accomplish this task?

   <?php class ControlPanel {
   
   var $default_settings = Array(
     'day1' => 'Monday',
     'time1' => '9:30-6:30'
     );
   
     function ControlPanel() {
       add_action('admin_menu', array(&$this, 'admin_menu'));
       add_action('admin_head', array(&$this, 'admin_head'));
   
       if (!is_array(get_option('parkway')))
       add_option('parkway', $this->default_settings);
       $this->options = get_option('parkway');
   
       if (function_exists('register_sidebar'))
           register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Sidebar'));
     }
   
     function admin_menu() {
       add_theme_page('Parkway Options', 'Opening Times', 'edit_themes', "parkway", array(&$this, 'optionsmenu'));
     }
   
     function admin_head() {
       echo '<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.get_bloginfo('template_url').'/code/controlpanel.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />';
     }
   
     function optionsmenu() {
     echo '<div id="icon-tools" class="icon32"><br /></div>';
     echo '<div class="wrap">';
     echo '<h2>Parkway Options</h2><br />';
     echo '<h3>Opening Times</h3><hr color="lightgray" width="99%" align="left" size="1">';
     if ($_POST['ss_action'] == 'save') {
       $this->options["day1"] = $_POST['cp_day1'];
   	$this->options["time1"] = $_POST['cp_time1'];
       update_option('parkway', $this->options);
       echo '<div class="updated fade" id="message" style="background-color: rgb(255, 251, 204); width: 300px; margin-left: 20px"><p>Settings <strong>saved</strong>.</p></div>';
     }
   
     echo '<form action="" method="post" class="themeform">';
     echo '<input type="hidden" id="ss_action" name="ss_action" value="save">';
     echo '<p>Day of the Week: <input class="widefat" style="text-align: right; width: 75px" name="cp_day1" id="cp_day1" type="text" value="'.$this->options["day1"].'" /></p>';
     echo '<p>Time: <input class="widefat" style="text-align: right; width: 75px" name="cp_time1" id="time1" type="text" value="'.$this->options["time1"].'" /></p>';
     echo '<p class="submit"><input type="submit" value="Save Changes" name="cp_save"/></p>';
     echo '</form>';
     echo '</div>';
   }
   }

   Thanks a lot for your time.
   Steve

   Have you hooked in your ControlPanel function anywhere? I can't see it in the code you've posted there, although I may have just missed it.

   You'd want to hook in like this:
   

   add_action('admin_menu', 'my_plugin_menu');

   replacing my_plugin_menu with your function name.

   By the looks of things you've probably already read this, but following the instructions on this page - Adding Administration Menus, in your functions.php file should do the trick.

   Sorry I'm stuggling with this - the code I had above I understand only a bit and I've read up on it but I'm still finding it hard to get my head around.

   I've tried stuff on that page but when I add things in it keep goings blank so is obviously not working.

   When you say hooked in my control panel - what does that mean and second what is my function name?

   I'm probably diving in too deep here but I have something that needs to be complete this week so unfortunately I've been chucked in the deep end!

   Appreicate any more guidance, thanks.
