This module does two things:
- Provides the option to make all dashboard blocks collapsible (on by default).
- Provides a set of additional blocks that can be (optionally) placed on the Dashboard provided by Backdrop CMS.
At this point, we are looking for good ideas for blocks to include in this module, please use the issue queue to submit requests.
https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/dashboard_plus/issues
This module currently contains the following blocks:
- Dashboard Plus - Manage content
- Contains links to add or manage existing content for each content type. Meant to replace the existing Dashboard - Create content block.
- Dashboard Plus - Recent unpublished comments
- Contains a block with a list of recent comments that are not published a link to "moderate" them.
- Dashboard Plus - Recent log messages
- Contains a block with 10/25/50/100 recent log messages along with a link to the log page.
- Dashboard Plus - Backdrop release notes
- Contains option to view release notes for either the latest minor release of Backdrop CMS or the latest bugfix release.
- Dashboard Plus - Resources
- Contains hardcoded links to some important and useful Backdrop CMS resources.
