editing xi css pt.2

Post by benhank »

I thought I had it...

ok in ccm\host\>open a host<
host detail
"description"

is displayed as
"alias" when viewing the actual host in XI.

You might not believe this, (because I know I don't), but this is actually confusing for some of my users.
I tried to use Firebug, but then it got confusing for me (no surprise there). I can't seem to locate the line or the css page that needs to be edited.

I actually doubt you can modify that particular component.. I may be wrong though. Most likely it is encrypted. Otherwise, I actually can see where its a little bit misleading but once you understand it, its not bad. If you can edit it, I would suggest starting in /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/ccm/ and grepping for your line.

grep -Ri 'description' ./*

edit: actually looks like its line 139 of /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/ccm/page_templates/common_settings.php

Again just want to state that I may have a different version with this not encrypted for testing. If you find that to be the case, we can see what is possible, but it would need to be modified each time we\you update.

thanks man, but I give up. It has something to do with "tfriendly" which pulls from somewhere else. thanks for trying.
