Magento2 Admin Menu – How to Add a Link to Stores->Configuration

adminmagento2menuredirectsystem.xml

I have a section <MySection> defined in system.xml, and a menu item called Settings in menu.xml. <MySection> can be found in Mangento Admin: Stores->Configuration->MySection, The link for the Setting should be the url of <MySection>. I have tried to add

action='admin/system_config/edit/section/'

, but it doesn't work as the key in url is different. I have also tried to redirect to that link in controller by doing:

$resultRedirect = $this->resultRedirectFactory->create();
$resultRedirect->setUrl('/admin/admin/system_config/edit/section/easytranslationplatform');

return $resultRedirect;

it failed as well. So, my question is that how to add a menu item that can link to Store->Configuration-><mySection> page.

You can use

action="adminhtml/system_config/edit/section/YOUR_SECTION_NAME"

A rewrite is not a permanent redirect. Rewrites are done at the server, redirects tell the browser to go elsewhere.

For a product URL to work, use the following:

id_path: product/$product_id
options: empty (NULL)
target_path: catalog/product/view/id/$product_id

You can see examples from your own core_url_rewrite table:

SELECT request_path, id_path, target_path
FROM core_url_rewrite
WHERE product_id IS NOT NULL
AND options IS NULL
LIMIT 10;

This option is necessary to prevent against CSRF attacks:

Cross-site request forgery, also known as a one-click attack or session riding and abbreviated as CSRF (sometimes pronounced sea-surf[1]) or XSRF, is a type of malicious exploit of a website whereby unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that the website trusts.[2] Unlike cross-site scripting (XSS), which exploits the trust a user has for a particular site, CSRF exploits the trust that a site has in a user's browser.

There is no speed benefit to disabling this option and it opens your store up to potential attack. I recommend to leave this option enabled.
