      Hmm, well I don't know then.  :-
      What does your traffic graphs config section look like now? Did you force a config reload by hitting save on some random page (I used DHCP Server)?

          After you've edited the config.xml file you must get pfSense to reload it for any changes to take effect. I did that by going to the first dhcp server settings page and, without making any changes, hitting save.

            :D Thats crazy….So to get it to save settings in the dashboard you have to go to something that is no where near related to the dashboard to save settings :D

            It really gets faith into the security aspect....NOT! If the code for the dashboard doesnt even work ,what else is wrong?

            :D

            Maybe the devs should try to get what we have allready working instead of introducing new stuff all the time???

              Yes it's a nasty work around but it's not a security issue.
              Just to get this into perspective the problem we are dealing with here is that the code to customise the dashboard layout is broken. The only reason I suggested using a different 'save' button is that's the easiest way to reload the config file. You could also issue an rc.reload_all from the CLI but that's just more involved.

              Anyway, did it work?  :)

                I need to see how I get them to stay open in the config file first. I have some other Pfsenses running that I can compare with.

                  It didnt work….as soon as I hit save somewhere else, it returns to WAN/LAN and no more.

                    Even if I save it en edit file and go save the config in any page, it reverts to WAN/LAN show and nothing else despite manual edit.

                    The edit is gone!!!!!!!!!

                      Hmm, interesting. I can't see how it is different to importing an older config file but maybe I'm missing something.  :-\ Certainly the section I gave above works fine.
                      What interfaces do you have? I can only suggest that perhaps you have the syntax wrong for VLAN interfaces. I don't have any so I can't help you there.
