Hello,

does anyone know a theme that shows the overview page as cards? I would find it clearer than a list.

greetings john

Hi. It’s one of those features that I’m also interested, but right now I have no time to work on.

Hi,  
I use a "bigboard " plugin for overview as cards.

hello mack,  
the plugin shows all projects in one board, something like a project collection?

I use BigBoard as well, great plugin! However by default KB shows this DashboardController&action=show when a user login. Anyone can let me know if there is an option to have the BigBoard controller=Bigboard&action=index&plugin=Bigboard loaded at login instead

Thx!

an option, no. it would require some code. maybe like a custom redirect in `OnStartup()` should work. how would you do that, well, create a plugin, you would need just a `Plugin.php` file, and in `OnStartup()` just add something like:

if bigboard is true  
then redirect to bigboard controller

in a nutshell, without actually doing it for you.
