Overview

You can define rules to filter which dashboard is shown to either all users or a specific set of users and/or groups. This rules allows you to replace the Confluence native dashboard with a custom one defined on a wiki page or by one of the dashboards created in Dashboard Hub.

The plugin allows you to replace the default global dashboard with your custom one in Confluence. It even enables you to have team dashboards or personal dashboards. The plugin also includes macros for displaying the popular pages, a beautiful weather widget or the daily Dilbert strip on your custom dashboard.

The plugin lets you replace the default global dashboard with a custom one defined on a simple wiki page, with no coding required. Plus you don’t have to rely on a Confluence admin for designs or updates.

Its built-in filter system lets you define and stack multiple rules to help both limit access and customize dashboards for individual people and teams.

Because the Custom Dashboard plugin uses a regular wiki page, you have complete control of the layout and format. That means you have the ability to combine other available page elements, including built-in Confluence widgets and macros from the Atlassian marketplace to build unlimited dashboards. The plugin even includes additional macros for displaying popular pages or the daily Dilbert strip.

You can restrict filter rules to either all users or a specific set of users and/or groups. Choose All Users if you want the rule to apply to all users or choose Restrict to and define the users and/or groups for which the rule should be applied to. Check Anonymous users if the restriction should also affect anonymous users.

Note: A filter rule will be applied as long as the user meets at least one of the restrictions. If no filter rule matches or no filter rules are defined, the default dashboard of Confluence will be displayed.
