Summary of Changes

Since a while now we can create back-end menus. This works for most components but not all. When you have a component which has no submenus in the manifest XML, this component won't show up.

This change will also make these components available that don't have a submenu entry in their manifest xml.

Testing Instructions

  1. Go to Menus -> Manage
  2. Filter the list on Administrator

  3. Click on New
  4. Create a new menu like this. Make sure the client is set to Administrator

  5. Click on Save & Close
  6. The new menu appears in the list now
  7. Click on the title My Menu
  8. You are now taken to the Menu Items list which is empty for this menu
  9. Click on New
  10. Click on Select behind Menu Item Type

  11. In the list there is no option to choose the Multilangual Associations component. So we can't create a link to this component.
  12. Apply the patch
  13. Reload the page
  14. Click on Select behind Menu Item Type
  15. Now you will see the Multilangual Associations component in the list

@franz-wohlkoenig You are correct. I didn't realize until you posted that the test site I was working on is not yet Joomla 3.8.x. Apologies :)
