Recently I have been looking into the dashboards to speed up my data retrieval.

Although I still put the data in Excel for more detailed use, I do miss some variables in the dashboards.



The two biggest for me,



1- Custom user role

We use this a lot to define different beta-test and other user groups.

2- Main categories

With a lot of sub categories and no filter save option on dashboards I would like to ex- or include larger batches than clicking all the sub forums one by one.



I would love to hear and see what else others may come up with.

Besides the variables, I would like to discuss the filter possibilities.

Yoeri said this: We've investigated saving dashboard filters in the past, unfortunately this is not possible because we embed the data into our Control environment



@Yoeri

To continue here, It might be my limited view form the outside. But wouldn't it be possible to just save the filter subsets you had selected and then save that? That would only generate data as you open the set. Per example, I add User Rank and Sub-forum as search field to the Content Dashboard. Then I would save this so that when I open the Content Dashboard and click my saved setting, I automatically get those search options already in the bar, without a saved pre-defined input that is.



Off course I would love the option to also save the chosen options in user rank or sub-forum. But I think that was the issue you were referring to when explaining why it's not possible? Can you be more specific on this as I don't really understand what you mean, Or maybe wait till the event ;)



Cheers,
