Unable to delete dashlets from Nagios Fusion

We are running Nagios Fusion 4.1.4 on Red Hat 7 64bit using the online installer.

When I go to Admin/Manage Dashlets, I don't have the option to delete dashlets. Instead, I see the option to add the dashlet or download the dashlet. When I click the download button, incase it has the wrong information, a window pops up and asks where I want to save the dashlet.

to delete a dashlet, go to the dashboard that you want to delete the dashlet from, hover over the dashlet you want to delete in the upper right side and you will see some options, Click the X

My screen doesn't have an X. Please see the picture in my first post. I get this screen by logging in as an administrator, selecting admin, then manage dashlets.

Your screenshot was on the manage dashlets page, the X will be on the dashboard where the dashlet is.

If you are looking to remove these from the system permanently, they are builtin and cannot be removed

Really? I know we can delete them from Nagios XI. I am supprised that the same functionality would not be available within Nagios Fusion. We need to remove the option to remove the Custom URL option so that users cannot use the Nagios Fusion server to visit external websites.

for some reason the custom URL was created as a CORE dashlet in Fusion.

You can delete the following directory to remove the dashlet

Code: Select all

rm -rf /usr/local/nagiosfusion/html/includes/dashlets/custom_url/
I'll put in a feature request to remove that as a CORE dashlet
