    Show dashboard item again

    Hello,

    In Umbraco 4.6.1 you can hide a dashboard item, but is there a way to show the dashboard item again?
    Do I need to change something in the database?

    Best regards
    Wesley

    Hi Wesley

    Try having a look at the Dashboard.config file in the config folder.

    Here it should be possible to configure the dashboard in any way you like.

    Hi Jan,

    When I rename the tab 'Get started' too e.g. 'Start' then I see the hidden dashboard items back. But is there a way to get the hidden items back without renaming the tab?

    Hi Wesley

    I think I misunderstood your question. Did not realise that there was an option to hide the different panels in the dashboards.

    I'm not sure on how to deal with this. Maybe there should be created a work item on codeplex suggesting the possibility to "show" panels again. I'm going to play a little around with the dashboard.config and the database...

    Will keep you posted if I find a soltution.

    Hi Wesley

    It seems like you just need to clear your cookies for the session - kabooom! And the hidden panels are now visible again :)

    If you want to remove the option of hiding them you just need to alter the showOnce attribute on each control element like this.

    Initially it looks like this:

    <control showOnce="true" addPanel="true" panelCaption="">

    To remove the option just make sure the attribute is empty
    <control showOnce="" addPanel="true" panelCaption="">

    Hope this helps.

    /Jan

    I created a work item on codeplex suggesting it should be possible to choose "show" when one has hidden a panel. Please vote if you agree: http://umbraco.codeplex.com/workitem/29968
