Dashboard - 3rd Column - $100
-
All,
Evgeny is, for lack of a better phrase, THE MAN! And the bounty has been paid. Thanks go out to SimonCPU, SuperMule, and Jimp on this one. I appreciate the input.
Now then, Evgeny wanted to open the floor for discussions regarding auto-detecting browser dimensions versus just manually selecting 3 or 4 columns. Can anyone give a good argument on why one method might be superior to the other?
Also, here are a couple of links to some full-sized sample images for your TMI-Candy enjoyment;

Thanks again everyone.

Please send patches to coreteam@pfsense.org so I can look them over. We MIGHT be able to get these in if they are trivial…. But no promises until I can judge the risk factor being this late in the BETA cycle.
EDIT: oh by the way, that looks incredible!
-
This is done as a package now. I was not hoping that you could push it to pfSense mainline.
modified:- index.php
- fbegin.inc
- fend.inc
- all.css for pfsense_ng theme
and added several pictures.
Still want to see patches or should I just push new package to packages in gitorious?
Thanks.

Why would you not want this stuff included?
-
Just because it is not tested enough and might badly affect other themes although I tried to avoid this. -( Lots of css stuff looked puzzling to me as usually you do not understand other's people thoughts ver well when they design web-pages using css (all this coordinates, margins, pads, relative-ness etc).
Anyway I'll provide patches and you decide. -
OK I understand your hesitation and can appreciate that.
I'll look it over and worst case scenario we get it in for 2.1.
-
I've sent patches.
I've got $300 from bounty starter. Thanks!!!
I've donated $100 out of these $300 to pfSense. Thank you, pfSense team! -
This is just awesomeness!!
Thx Evgeny! looks very good! Sorry I couldnt contribute more than I did.
-
I think we did a good thing here for the whole community. And I obviously wanted it bad enough to pay for it and test it. I hope the core team finds it safe and suitable for inclusion before 2.0 goes RC. Maybe not, but it's obviously cool enough to include down the line.
Thanks again, Evgeny.

Is it backwards compatible with 1.2.3?
-
Backwards compatible?
Nyet! What we've got in 1.2.3 is what we've got, unless there's ever a 1.2.4, I suspect.
Good question for the devs though; Will there ever be a 1.2.4 with a backport of …stuff... from 2.x?
(Way off topic though...) -
No, 1.2.x is dead; Long live 2.0. :-)
-
I was only thinking about the mod here :)
-
The 2.0 dashboard is a lot different than the one backported into the 1.2.3 dashboard package… At this point I doubt it would be worth the effort to backport the changes into that package.
-
Thks Jim :)

I left the 3 column dashboard up all night. It's been 24 hours and no errors, complaints, or lock-ups.
So far it's all good.
-
The third column package had been running for a couple of weeks then I upgraded last night and had issues. Any ideas from the core team on whether or not this package is going to see general distribution soon? Sullrich and Supermule think its cool. So, can we get it included in the general distribution, please?
Thoughts and comments welcomed.
Thanks.

Probably need to reinstall the package. The upgrade would have likely reset the PHP include files. The downside to packages that modify the base system I'm afraid.

Yes, before upgrade please uninstall the package. It removes everything it brought in and restores all the file it replaced.
I think 2low4zero's question was 'why can't we put this package into official pfSense package repository?' rather than 'why did I have issues after upgrade?' -) -

I don't have an answer to the package question, I thought you had commit access to the package repo. Or do you mean getting this in the mainline pfsense repo? If the latter, I think it's going to have to wait until after 2.0 is out.
