Content management tools
If a user is logged in to the administration panel, ImpressPages automatically adds admin navigation bar at the top of the page and, if required, a widget bar.
In order for this to happen, you should add <?php echo ipHead() ?> and <?php echo ipJs() ?> to each of your theme's layout files.
Administration page HTML is loaded using AJAX. So, if you want to access admin panel from JavaScript, you should catch ipAdminPanelInit or ipContentManagementInit event (see the JavaScript event table bellow).
ImpressPages adds jQuery by default. You shouldn't add your own version of jQuery. If you do so, you can break the administration panel.
