#5354 closed enhancement (fixed)

Implement dashboard content as an action, so it can be replaced/added to

Description

The proposed patch implements the list of possible actions on the dashboard (e.g. Write a post, Add a link to your blogroll, etc) as an action, do_action('dashboard_content'), rather than "hard" coded into the page. This allows to additional material to be added or removed on a per-blog basis, through plugins and/or themes.

Patch moving some dashboard content into an action

#1 @simonwheatley

My need for this is through wanting to tailor the welcome/help content according to the role of the user viewing the dashboard. I have some help links for various actions show there, and there's no point in telling the students how to moderate comments if they haven't got the privileges (for example).
