Changing the Web Interface Layout

Good afternoon,
I have noticed that within the Nagios Core web interface, in (for example) the Host Group summary, the HostGroups into which I have grouped my hosts are laid out in alphabetical order, left to right, top to bottom.
I have been asked if there are any options to change this. Is it even possible?
Thanks in advance
Pete

Can you be more specific on how you would like it changed?

Good afternoon,
My boss doesn't like the way in which groups of hosts containing different numbers of hosts are laid out on the screen. So, for example, it might look like this:
Code: Select all
_______________________ __________________________________
| | |
| | |
| Hostgroup A | Hostgroup B |
| | |
|______________________ | |
| | |
| |_________________________________|
| Hostgroup C | |
| | |
|_______________________| |
| | |
| Hostgroup D | HostGroup E |
|_______________________| |
| |
|_________________________________|
He wants to see Hostgroup C vertically positioned at the same point as Hostgroup E, Hostgroup D vertically positioned after Hostgroup, and so on.
In other words, the host groups won't be tiled, but will be displayed in rows, with white space where hostgroups are longer or shorter than than the one to their left or right.
Does that make sense?
Thanks and have a good weekend.
Pete

It's certainly possible, but it would require re-writing the part of Core that builds the page. How big or small of a change this would be, I can't say.

That's all I needed to know - thanks very much!
