The Overview Dashboard provides predefined widgets that can be used alongside HTML code to enhance the dashboard template. Currently, supported widgets are Search Box, Banner, and Card. This section shows how to utilize, configure and what to pay attention to when using the predefined widgets. Further, it also shows how to override predefined styles to customize the widgets.

➕ Create a new template
Select type “Dashboard page”
Select your system language first (create translations later)
Give it any name
Add HTML (see code below)
Save
Reload the browser and find the dashboard as the first entry in Picturepark.

Deletion

Modify Dashboard

You can modify the whole dashboard using HTML and CSS or work with the following predefined widgets.

The Search Box is an element that allows to search for Content Items based on a search keyword. By typing a search, and selecting the correct channel and search settings, a redirection to content items is being performed upon a search. The search box can be used by the tag cp-dashboard-search-box in the template.

Example of a search box

Code Example

<cp-dashboard-search-box
    class="override-classes"
    [defaultSelectedIds]="['products', 'keywords']"
>
</cp-dashboard-search-box>

Configurable Attributes

Attribute Name	Required	Description

Attribute Name

Required

Description

class

Classes that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.

style

Styles that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.

[defaultSelectedIds]

A string array of channel ids to provide a preselected channel in the channel picker.

If the current user has no access to any of the channels or the channels do not exist, the channel with the lowest sort order will be preselected.

If the user has access to the channels, the first channel in the string array will be used.

Override Styling

The Search Box for the dashboard is a wrapper around an internal implementation of a search box. The bare minimum implementation of the Search Box widget can be considered as follows:

<div class="cp-dashboard-search-box" [ngClass]="class" [style]="style">
    <INTERNAL_SEARCH_BOX_IMPLEMENTATION
      class="search-box"
      [ngClass]="class"
      [style]="style"
    >
    </INTERNAL_SEARCH_BOX_IMPLEMENTATION>
</div>

The class cp-dashboard-search-box or the class for the internal search box search-box can be extended/overridden by a class that gets passed through by the class attribute. See examples for overriding below.

The Dashboard Banner is an element that contains a background image, title, teaser, and a search box. It is preconfigured to use a height of a minimum 150px and a maximum 33% of the viewport height. The banner can be used by the tag cp-dashboard-banner in the template.

Usage Example

Configurable Attributes

Attribute Name	Required	Description

Attribute Name	Required	Description
class		Classes that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.
style		Styles that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.
backgroundImageUrl		The URL of a background image. The image is being fit inside the container by CSS property `object-fit: cover;`. An image URL has to be provided.
teaserTitle		The title of the banner. Inserted as HTML `<h1>` element. Can be optionally passed.
teaserText		The teaser text of the banner. Inserted as HTML `<p>` element. Can be optionally passed.
[defaultSelectedIds]		The banner contains the Search Box widget. See “Configurable attributes” section of Search Box.

Override Styling

The bare minimum implementation of the Banner widget can be considered as follows:

The class cp-dashboard-banner can be extended/overriden by a class that gets passed through by the class attribute. See examples for overriding below.

Dashboard Cards

A Card is a combination of an image and a title that can be either linked to internal resources or external resources. The Card can be used by the tag cp-dashboard-card in the template.

Usage Example

Configurable Attributes

Attribute Name	Required	Description

Attribute Name	Required	Description
class		Classes that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.
style		Styles that can be passed through to the internal HTML elements.
openInNewTab		Defines if the provided URL should be opened in a new tab or in the same tab where the card is being clicked on.
channelId		In order to show or not show a card based on the permission of the user for the provided channel id. If a user has access to the provided channel id, the card will be shown otherwise it will not be shown.
imageWidth		Width for the image inside the card. Defaults to `350px` if no value provided.
imageHeight		Height for the image inside the card. Defaults to `250px` if no value provided.
title		Title for the card.
url		URL that the card should be linked to. If the URL starts with `/`, the URL is being treated as internal link. With an internal link, filter criterias can be used to link to predefined filters and search. If `url` is an internal link, `openInNewTab` will have no effect. In this case, the link will open in same browser tab.
imageUrl		URL of the image that should be displayed in the card.

Linking To Predefined Filters

By providing the filter criterias in the URL that gets passed to the dashboard card, linking to predefined filters can be achieved. The URL that is passed to the url attribute has to start with a / and has to contain the full filter string.

Note: The filter string does not need to be serialized and can be copied from the browser URL as is.

Override Styling

The bare minimum implementation of the Card widget can be considered as follows:

The class cp-dashboard-card can be extended/overriden by a class that gets passed through by the class attribute. See examples for overriding below.

Liquid syntax

The Dashboard page supports the Liquid template language.

You can access the following context from within your liquid template:
{ isAnonymousUser: bool, userRoleIds: string[], userRights: UserRight[], isDeveloper: bool, loginUrl: string, customer: { customerId: string, name: string }

Example for checking user rights
