SpreeAdminBar

Adds an admin bar to a Spree E-Commerce platform shop front-end, allowing an admin user to quickly navigate to the relevant sections within the site admin pages.

The admin bar gets displayed at the top of each page to users logged in as an admin. It works with following the entities:

• Products
• Taxons/Taxonomies
• Pages (Spree Static Content)
• Related Products (Spree Related Products)

Background

We found this simple admin bar really speeds up working on a Spree site. When browsing the site front end, we often found we wanted to jump to the relevant section in the admin to make a small change. This admin bar greatly speeds up the time it takes to navigate to the relevant section in the admin.
