Extra elements in admin bar

This works for me…I’m not sure if you can somehow combine the two items and only call $admin_bar->add_menu( $args); once.

add_action('admin_bar_menu', 'add_items',  100);
function add_items($admin_bar)
{
    $args = array(
            'id'    => 'plugins',
            'title' => 'Plugins',
            'href'  => 'plugins.php',
            'meta'  => array(
                    'title' => __('Plugins'),
                    ),
            );

    $admin_bar->add_menu( $args);
    $args = array(
            'id'     => 'add-plugin',
            'title'  => 'Add New',
            'href'   => 'plugin-install.php',
            'meta'   => array(
                    'title' => __('Add New Plugin'),
                    ),
            'parent' => 'plugins',
            );

    $admin_bar->add_menu( $args);
}

EDIT: This should go into your theme’s functions.php file.

No problem!
