      another update. Got the csrf working :), just the table is not being displayed  :(

      ^^ that causes the interfaces pages not to render properly. Again jquery related I assume? As it only shows the enable interface box and not all the info. This is a function show_allcfg inside a javascript tag on the interfaces.php page.

      its either have a working csrf code, or lose some of the gui, dependent on the placement of the import jquery line.

      I'm guessing the jquery file needs amending, I can't figure it out

      I'm outta my depth here!

        @charlie0440:

        Not aware I have touched or come across any scrollbar functions. Are you having an issue? If so please describe, provide a screenshot

        Not at all, it's just a feature on 2.1 that was a long time issue.

          ahh i give up. I restored the original files so I was back at a stock looking pfsense. By adding this single line to either the head.inc or the fbegin.inc its breaking loads:

          http://cubeupload.com/im/2ZSreG.png

          Do you notice anything odd? enable interface is ticked but nothing is displayed. Also the csrf breaks with this one line. It must be conflicting with another js file but I don't know where to begin. Are there no devs readings this thread, who can at least point me in a direction? The plan was a twitter bootstrap template which requires jquery. I have no idea if this is a big issue to fix or a newbie oversight on my behalf.

          Edit: Drama over, I ditched 2.0.x and have moved to building against a 2.1 nightly its all seems to be working fine ;D

            RIght working template for 2.1 (tested on a nightly from 2/5/13)

            Installation Instructions:

            1. Extract the zip to a folder on your PC
            2. Backup the original files on your pfsense box

            These files will be replaced so make a copy:
            /usr/local/www/fbegin.inc
            /usr/local/www/fend.inc
            /usr/local/www/head.inc
            /usr/local/www/widgets/widgets/system_information.widget.php

            3. Copy the files to pfsense
            From within the pfmaster folder:
            scp -r * root@192.168.0.25:/usr/local/www

            replace with your ip address

            4. Open up the webGui and login to see the changes

            To revert back to the original files:

            You need to restore the files you backed up in step 1 to their original name ie:
            mv /usr/local/www/fbegin_bk.inc /usr/local/www/fbegin.inc

            etc..

            optional delete this folder:
            /usr/local/www/assets

            –--------------------------------

            Some screenshots > http://cubeupload.com/codes/38bfda

            Please provide feedback. Is it worth me making a start on all the pages? I have only edited the template and not the individual pages. I don't want to get stuck in to find its going to be obsolete as someone else is redesigning. I read on another post about a possible kickstarter project.

            Edit: If all that is needed is some tidying up as opposed to redesigning then it should be straight forward, all being time consuming. Just spend 5 mins on the arp page (again yet to style it with any css) just tidied it up a little, some screenshots (before and after) > http://cubeupload.com/codes/229c3f

                Can't argue with that example.  :)
                Nice job.

                  and we can do some cool jquery for our phones and tablets > screenshot http://cubeupload.com/im/3bM0qR.png

                  Still needs some work there's far too much padding on the left. But then I haven't even looked at any css yet.

                  Edit: changed the screenshot it was showing the mobile version (we needed the desktop version as I haven't changed any mobile code, if that makes sense)

                    Not had much time recently to play with this. I did notice I broke a few things with the my last code changes.

                    So here is a new zip (for 2.1) > https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12367642/wip.zip

                    Fixed:
                    Drag and drop of widgets on the dashboard now works
                    Unread messages (acknowledgements) are now shown

                    Installation Instructions:

                    1. Extract the zip to a folder on your PC
                    2. Backup the original files on your pfsense box

                    These files will be replaced so make a copy:
                    /usr/local/www/fbegin.inc
                    /usr/local/www/fend.inc
                    /usr/local/www/head.inc
                    /usr/local/www/guiconfig.inc
                    /usr/local/www/widgets/widgets/system_information.widget.php
                    /usr/local/www/javascript/jquery.js

                    3. Copy the files to pfsense
                    From within the wip folder:
                    scp -r * root@192.168.0.25:/usr/local/www

                    replace with your ip address

                    –------------------

                    I started to look at the dashboard page. I managed to split it into three columns but am struggling to make the third droppable.

                      Ive also got to do some of the other pages heres what ive done so far

                      Tabs
                      Boostrap text boxes
                      got rid of the icon in the boxes changed all the buttons to boostrap buttons

                        @snazy2000 good work! Do you use github. There's no point two of us working on different projects. I too played with the dashboard today

                          I use BitBucket and looks good.

                          I've also now edited the login page. I am planning on starting again because im not really licking the look that i had want a better view.

                          I am now off college until September so got plenty of time to get this all done!!

                          the only issue i'm thinking of with the way we are doing this (editing the main files) is that themes will not work any more.

                          It would be better if it could be done in a theme but its just not possible because of the way the whole web GUI is coded.

                            It would probably be a good idea at this point to get some input from one of the project devs so that your efforts are most productive. At least more likely to be accepted.  :)

                            I have to commend both of you for getting stuck in where others have only offered comment. At the very least it shows what can be done.

                              I had based my design on twitter bootstrap and was planning on removing all the existing css from pfsense, and getting it all into one file "bootstrap.css", as craymore said this would be best and will make reading the code easier.

                              Another advantage being it would be easy to theme as there would only be one css file

                                I think i am going to setup a dev pfsense box and download yours and then edit from there again.

                                    is that on 2.0.3? I've been coding against 2.1 as I had loads of issues with JQuery in 2.0.3.

                                    Edit: I can highly recommend a virtual box (or any virtual machine) install. All that is required is the latest snapshot iso load up the machine and if you screw it up just reboot the VM.  ;D

                                        I suggest you move to 2.1 as there have many commits which affected the GUI code, plus there's no point working against an old build.

                                        If you are continuing against 2.0x the only post of mine with files which should work is this one > http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,48140.msg333804.html#msg333804

                                          Any such work should be using a 2.1 base mostly because 2.0.x was all using prototype.js, 2.1 was converted to jQuery.
