Custom dashlet help?

[cbeattie-unitrends]

I need to write a custom dashlet for Fusion that displays the critical results for a particular service check culled from five Nagios XI servers. I've read the documentation, and I have been able to copy and slightly modify some of the existing dashlets into new ones. However, I don't understand PHP well enough to get what I want for this one.

The showoutput example in the docs is close to what I want. I like being able to pick the service from a dropdown, but it needs to show the critical results for all of the hosts.

Is this appropriate for the support forum, or does it fall under custom development? I already saw in the docs that I could contact Sales for a quote and I will investigate that if necessary.

Thanks!

Generally speaking, any time you are writing the code yourself it is creeping toward the "out of scope" line. It's somewhat of a judgement call each time.

Can you post a screenshot? I can ask the devs if they have any quick pointers to get you what you need.

I managed to hack it to into nonfunctionality, so a screenshot won't help until I start over.

Thanks anyway, you can go ahead and close/lock this.

Sounds good!
Thanks for using the Nagios Support Forums!
