Are you sure about the widget's path you specify in the .PDF?

So after a few hours of running the package I check the first page and found the below image. I'm using snapshot 1.2-BETA-1-TESTING-05-27-2007. Nothing in the system log or package log. Shows the same way in ie and in firefox. A reboot did not clear it up.
I also can't remove that package and re-installing didn't work. Just hangs and gives me:
"Removing package…
Loading package configuration dashboard.xml...
Loading package instructions..."

Try using the nervecenter theme.

Did that didn't change anything. I did get it to work again after trying a few things. I did a backup and restore of my config file, then I reinstalled all packages, it still wasn't working but, then I was able to delete dashboard and re-install it. It may have been a problem with my other packages, a few seemed to be messed up.

What I did was download the XML config, remove the package entry from it, upload it again. Then I could reinstall the package again. When I reinstalled it still did not change the home page from the default, but I delete it (which worked fine this time) then installed it again, and its all back (but still can't get logs or graphs to work).

Hi,
pFSense rocks :)
Is there a way to install this package on embedded snapshot?
Thanks
-
In the upcoming 1.3 Release all versions, including embedded, will have the dashboard installed by default. Once 1.2 is out the door the beta for 1.3 will follow shortly after that.

Excellent news!

I am trying to make a carp status widget starting with the code from the interfaces widget and the carp status page and using the pdf as a guide.
I made something that I think might work and tried to get it to show on the dashboard. It is in the menu for adding but nothing happens it just stays the same.
So I guessed my code had bugs (normally does) so I tried a hello world widget
| Hello world | | Hello world |same problem so I copied the Interfaces widget renaming it interfaces2 and this also wont show on the page.
the firefox error console saysError: element has no properties
Source File: https://pfwall.example.com/javascript/scriptaculous/effects.js
Line: 561Do I need to do something extra to make the widget show some config etc???
Thanks

Yes. Here is the code that makes the traffic graphs widget configurable:
Refresh Interval:
<select name="refreshInterval" class="formfld" id="refreshInterval" onchange="updateGraphDisplays();"><option value="1" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "1")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>1</option> <option value="2" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "2")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>2</option> <option value="3" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "3")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>3</option> <option value="4" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "4")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>4</option> <option value="5" <?php="" if="" ($refreshinterval="=" "5")="" echo="" "selected";?="">>5</option></select> Seconds
Note: changing this settings can affect CPU Performance on the pfSense BoxYou have to have thein there with the -setting postfix. You also have to make sure the hidden shown below:

Sorry I may not have been clear in the last post. This widget doesn't need any config it just displays the carp status.
Actually yesterday I reinstalled the Dashboard package and the widget started displaying and working guess someone had made some changes.I posted it here http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,5407.0.html and sullrich has committed it ;D
Does the widget need config data even if it has no config options??
Thanks for the help

Nope. Only if you have information you want to save and use for later.
