Nagios Support Forum

Yes you are 100% correct on this. I believe there are some feature requests in place to resolve this.

However I also think the Javascript stuff tmcdonald had may be another way around this. I've not tried it yet.

The java script would work for me. But due to some security concerns some folks around here have javascript disabled in their browser so I'll need to avoid it in order to keep the user experience consistent.

At this point then I think you'll need to wait until the wizard framework is reworked to allow that. Currently it may be possible (though I have not tested this) to modify the PHP arrays holding the host/service data from the wizard and manually remove yourself from the contacts in a later step. I don't really know which arrays you would need to modify but it would make most sense to do it in the final stage. I believe part of the problem is that the framework itself is SourceGuardian-protected so I can't reveal too much about the inner-workings, and even if I could the framework could not be modified.

Not a problem. I will wait for the modification to anything with this step. By the way would you happen to know if there are plans to have the contacts and group boxes sorted by alphabetical order or have a sorting option available? I literally have a list of over 100 contacts and about 20 groups and I don't see any order to them so it is somewhat tedious.

I can't say we have any plans for that specifically, but we always accept feature requests. I'll go ahead and put one in now.

As for the framework mods, I also can't say for sure when those would be made. That decision is up to the development team and I am merely a support peon.
