THEME: Black - based on nerve center

tommyboy180

This is my latest theme release. Comes with Temperature display! (with phpsysinfo package)

This theme has some new things that no other theme has. Enjoy! Use the below script to do an automated complete install.

Download black-nerve

Confirmed working with FF 3.6 and IE 8 on Version 1.2.3-Release

I like it!

Some constructive criticism though:

1. The Blue Background is distracting on some pages.
ie: System/Advanced - the page is pretty long so the blue background gets too light around the middle of the page, making white text hard to read.

2. A Selected Tab makes the tab unreadable with the light grey background.
ie: Firewall/Rules

A beautiful concept, System Logs is gorgeous to view now, thank you.

Thank you for the input!

In the next couple of nights I will find a pattern or image that will not distract the administrator from the content.

I couldn't figure out how to skin the tabs.

Does any member know where the tab color is set? Its not in the theme css, that's for sure.

Unfortunately the tab colors aren't themable in 1.2.x. The colors are hardcoded in /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc in the function disaplay_top_tabs().

Just another pointer, it would be handier for people who use UNIX systems if you packed it with .tar.gz or .bz2 instead of .rar. I prefer to fetch and unpack things right onto a pfSense box, rather than unpacking them on a workstation and then uploading them separately. :)

Looks good in pictures, but I haven't tried it out just yet on a test box.

Fixed table colors and some minor changes.
Changed archive type to .tar

Mod included for new pie chart and Tab colors.

onhel,

If you are worried about the background being a little distracting then make the following changes:

Edit /usr/local/www/themes/black-nerve/all.css

Line 274
replace```
images/content-bg/1.jpg

with```
images/content-bg/2.jpg

The alternate image is in the pack. This should be what you are looking for.

Yes, much better, thank you!

@tommyboy180:

Now with Temperature Monitor!

How are you polling the temperature? From the ACPI thermal zone(s)?

tommyboy180

Using mbmon

It's so simple, I don't know why I didn't think of it before.

EDIT: Need phpsysinfo package.

jimp

Ah, OK. A dashboard widget might be nice for that, if phpsysinfo is already installed. Sort of like how I have separate widget packages for Snort and HAVP.

Some motherboards support polling the temp straight from ACPI with no extra software installed. Unfortunately support for that is pretty sparse. I've been meaning to code in some support for that but I need access to more hardware that actually supports it. ;D

tommyboy180

How can I do that…

if mbmon exists then
....
else
nothing

Oh, I could do a file exists for /usr/local/bin/mbmon

Would that work?

jimp

Yeah that should be sufficient. If the binary exists then it should be installed and usable.

tommyboy180

Updated

Will now look for mbmon before attempting to display temperatures.
Thank you jimp!

Now install and uninstall the theme with 3 simple commands.

This allows you to install and remove without having to mess with the file system!
Each line is a separate command and should be executed separately

To execute go to Diagnostics -> Command
Push Execute to run the command


fetch -o /tmp/install-black-nerve.sh http://tomschaefer.org/temp/pfsense/black-nerve/install-black-nerve.sh
chmod 777 /tmp/install-black-nerve.sh
/tmp/install-black-nerve.sh

When you are done installing go to System -> General Setup -> Change The Theme to black-nerve at the bottom of the page!
Now install phpsysinfo for the Temperature stats

To uninstall follow the same instructions but use the below commands:


fetch -o /tmp/remove-black-nerve.sh http://tomschaefer.org/temp/pfsense/black-nerve/remove-black-nerve.sh
chmod 777 /tmp/remove-black-nerve.sh
/tmp/remove-black-nerve.sh

When you are done go to System -> General Setup -> and change the Theme to NerveCenter

Thank you!

New update released!

New PieChart based on JpGraph
Temperature is integrated
Some minor aesthetic changes

The Pie chart will be displayed if you have more than 0% Disk Usage
The Temperature will be displayed if you have phpsysinfo installed (looks for mbmon)

AhnHEL

Updated! Thank you again for your work, my current favorite.

Looks pretty nice but Im sure some stuff might need tweaked so you can have all features..
