Unable to find a new Data Input for the Web Monitoring

Hi,

I installed the Website Monitoring app with any problem, but I am unable to find the new "Data Input" to setup a new Web Monitoring Input.

I am logged as Admin.

Thanks,

David

Also had the same issue, the previous answer didn't work with 6.3.x

However, use the status overview dashboard, and there'll show up:
No website monitoring inputs exist yet; create one to monitor a website. Create a website monitoring input now.

Link leads to ../en-US/manager/website_monitoring/adddata/selectsource?input_type=web_ping&modinput=1&input_mode=1

Can create an input, but have to repeat the same URL as it does not show up in the Data Inputs screen. So not a solution but workaround.

In addition: editing via ../en-GB/manager/website_monitoring/data/inputs/web_ping
