Remove Header from Network Map

[abishop]

The Network Status Map is a fantastic tool I use to see the "health" of my network and the path the communication takes. I find that the header where it says "Network Status Map, Update info" Is there a way to remove it OR make the background color transparent so the map can have more real estate on the screen? Currently it cuts information off, I can zoom out but then I cant read it.

Make a copy of the "original" index.php file:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/statusmap
cp -p index.php index.php.original

Then, overwrite the index.php file in the "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/statusmap" directory with the one below (I added a *.txt extension just so that I could easily upload it; rename it back to "index.php"):

index.php.txt

Also, open the "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/statusmap/infobox.php" file in a text editor, and change this:

Code: Select all

<td class="infoBox">

to this:

Code: Select all

<td class="infoBox hide">

Save, exit and access the Network Status map to see if it would work better for you now.

Note: Keep in mind that these changes would be wipe out when you upgrade to the next version of Nagios XI.

This is glorious. Now one more thing. The "?" is on top of the menu button. Can, they be moved, or the map menu go away? I already have my map layout saved how I want it. A previous forum post helped me with that.

You can remove the question mark by clearing the "Enable the help system" check-box under the user's "Help System" settings, and clicking on "Update Settings".

Unfortunately, the map's menu cannot be easily removed.

Update: You could get rid of the menu by changing line 88 of the "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/statusmap/map.php" file from this:

Code: Select all

<div id="menubutton" ng-style="menuButtonStyle()"

to this:

Code: Select all

<div id="menubutton" class="hide" ng-style="menuButtonStyle()"

however, if you did that, you wouldn't be able to edit the map. So, it is up to you what you would like to do. FYI.

Hiding the "?" options is not available for me, not even as an admin. The hiding the menu icon did though! Thank you very much for your help!

Hmm, this seems to me like a bug. The link is supposed to be there by default...

Go to Admin > System Extensions > Manage Components > Help System > Edit settings, select the "Enable the help system" check-box (if it is not selected already), and click on "Apply Settings". Next, click on the username in the upper-right corner, and see if the "Help System" link showed up under the "My Account" menu on the left.

That did it. It was enabled, I disable and re-enabled it. Thank you very much!

You are welcome! Is it OK now to close this topic and mark it as resolved?

Yes, and thank you again. Nagios Forums have been a great resource during our trial!
