The editor area doesn't support generic widgets, but what you can do instead is:

  • add an action to the "Actions Toolbar"

  • configure "Custom Layout Components" for:
    • tab

    • section or

    • panel

  • "Custom HTML" for
    • section

    • panel

All of the above is documented here: Editor Area Widget

Depending on your requirements, choose the appropriate customization option.

My rules of thumb:

  • want do "do something" with the current item -> custom action

  • want to show something -> tab/panel or section, depending on how much information or how complex the information is.

Hi ,

You can use widget-extension tag in *-backoffice-widgets.xml to extend any widget in mashup. You can find more details here.
