Re: Forum notifications aren't clearing

That was one of the first things I tried. I did not solve the problem. However, I did solve it with some Selenium trickery, so I'm all set.

Request: Ability to backup/restore just users

I know we can take config snapshots, but they are the Core files only. I know we can take backups, but that's everything. Before we make chnanges to 169 Nagios XI users, it would be cool if we could just do a snapshot of the users table so we can recover if we do something wrong without having to pu...

Forum notifications aren't clearing

I have four notifications on this phpBB forum that can't be cleared. See image below. When I go to the posts, they aren't cleared. When I click "clear all" I get an AJAX error. I know the software is old, but it would be nice to not have 4 nagging notifications.

Re: Can we get an overflow:scroll added to dashlets?

Ideally, we would still like to see scroll bars, since some dashlets (like BBmap and Host/service groups) can often have hundreds of lines in them. Rather than have all those things scroll off the bottom of the page or be reduced to single pixels because of the information density, having a scroll b...

Can we get an overflow:scroll added to dashlets?

It would be so awesome if some time were spent on dashlets. I won't go into every suggestion that we have from customers, but one of the top ones (besides dashboard layout tools) is to have an overflow scroll bar on a dashlet instead of just letting it sprawl out of its bounding box. Example follows...

Current state of Synthetic Web Transactions

Since WebInject is dead, what's the current recommend path forward for synthetic web transactions? Looking for something better than forking off Selenium requests to a headless Chromium browser in Python that takes forever to finish and times out of Nagios's reaper half the time.

Re: Is it possible to delete custom macros from the API?

I'm looking for the "mind blown" emoji.... :o Thanks!!!!! We'll have to see if we can break it!! Happy to find out about the deleting custom variables, but it's more of a "we want things to look clean by not setting them to null values" than anything important. You've just made m...

Re: Is it possible to delete custom macros from the API?

We leverage active_checks_enabled today, but it still leaves things in a state that the checks are "active" just not being checked. Can make for confusing reports when we want to have "old disk check" and "new disk check" (for instance). Was hoping that this could be an...

Re: Is it possible to delete custom macros from the API?

PIck your poison for use case, but the two that come up most are similar to what you've described: 1. Staging large deployments where we want to put lots of things in play, but don't want them all happening all at once (mainly to avoid "what the hell are all these notifications" syndrome 2...

Re: Is it possible to delete custom macros from the API?

Any hope for being able to mark hosts/services as "not active" in the API any time soon? That would be a real killer bonus for us when we do massive updates for customers.
