I like the intro page plugin, it is a small simple summary page. I haven't seen too many users say much about CactiEZ. I thought I would share a screenshot of what the plugin looks like on my setup.
I modified graph_pie.php and added one extra file, I hope this will help some others.

Updated graph_pie.php.

Two new files, I have added image smoothing, transparent background and background bubbles for the Legend and Total.
I am crazy about how things look, this is an excellent plugin! No third party plugin all php!!

So I found a flaw in the code, I have uploaded a new version of the file. I just added a line to initialize the two pie vector variables while drawing the 3D effect and before the 2D, otherwise it would cause a slight skew and twist the image.

An updated screenshot of Intropage working with the newest version of cacti and it looks sharp in the dark theme, with one minor modification I changed the transparency color to black instead of white!

Hy,

Very good plugin thanks for the work !!!
A good evolution (for me ) : link with Cacti user rights for a user limited cannot see all statistics but statistics of authorized equipment.

I have been playing around with pChart 1.4, because I like the nice charts it can make. To be honest I am a little more than rusty with my programing, it has been a while and I might be having a brain block. I am trying to get the proper values into the dataset and show some really nice polished pie charts. Here is the code I modified from graph_pie.php, and the resulting picture I have included I have uploaded. Not all the data is passing the way I had expected it to. I am hoping somebody will see the error I have made or at least see what I am trying to do!

// Dataset definition
$k = array();
$v = array();
$count = 0;

$_GET['values'] = array_slice ($_GET['values'],0,6, true);

foreach ($_GET['values'] as $key=>$value) {
array_push($k,$key);
array_push($v,$value);
$count++;
}
$DataSet = new pData;
$DataSet->AddPoint($value,"Serie1");
$DataSet->AddPoint($key,"Serie2");
$DataSet->AddAllSeries();
$DataSet->SetAbsciseLabelSerie("Serie2");

I got it figured out folks. A little string manipulation and voila we have pretty pie charts with Intropage 0.5, I am using pChart 1.4.

Version 0.6 works with user rights

Hi,

Thank you for the 0.6 update.

Love this plugin!

Few feedback items:

In the database check, "The storage engine for the table doesn't support check" should not be reported as an error - all memory tables (e.g. Boost, DSStats) report this.

It would be nice if there was an option to NOT show/hide on the page, but link to the relevant Cacti console page instead, so my permissions that are already set still work (not everyone who sees this page should see the logs, for example).

I don't see where I can stop it being the default page on login.

I haven't any memory tables in my cacti installation. I'm adding it to my TODO list

I don't understand. Could you explain me this better?

If you have console right, you can change it in console -> User management -> User -> Login options.
If you haven't console right, you have a problem I forgot solve this situation. It wil be fixed in next version.

Instead of show/hide, for each of the little report sections, to show detail, it could be an option to link to the existing Cacti management page for more information instead (e.g. /utilities.php?action=view_user_log)

So: my user, who doesn't have permission to see the user management page, can't see the login logs on the intro page either. You don't need to do lots of work - Cacti already checks if they are allowed when the user clicks the link.

I know your existing way must be more convenient for internal-only Cacti, but not everyone trusts all their users.

uppps. Version 0.6 has a problem. If you have cacti URL with any directory (like http://ip.ad.re.ss/cacti), you are redirected wrongly. I will fixed it in new release.

You can fix it, change function:

function intropage_redirect () {
global $config;
header("Location: " . $config['url_path'] . "/plugins/intropage/intropage.php");
}

I think that little report are helpful. Direct link to existing Cacti management page is at the bottom of reports

You are right, but ... I have right too I don't trust my users In version 0.6 I made big change. If user hasn't console right he will see only his graphs (in graphs or intropage tab). I have few cacti users who are my customers. In version 0.6 they see only their resources. I know that Cacti works fine with right, but why they should see failed logins, log size and incorrect time?

Macan, thank you for this information. What php file in what location do I need to change?
