I would like to create a dashboard that consists of 2 main parts:
1 - open search bar allowing any search 2 - results of searches that ran when dashboard was loaded, unrelated to 1).
I figure this is done with advanced views (what is the difference between a view and a dashboard?), but I could need some more pointers - e.g. basic structure/layout etc. to get started.
Thanks!!
I am also struggeling with the difference of "view" and "dashboard".
For now on I can say when I have a "dashboard.xml" like this:
<view template="dashboard.html">
<module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader"/>
<module name="AppBar" layoutPanel="navigationHeader"/>
<module name="SearchBar" layoutPanel="mainSearchControls">
<module name="Paginator">
<param name="entityName">events</param>
<param name="count">10</param>
<module name="EventsViewer">
</module>
</module>
</module>
<dashboard>
<label>Dashboard</label>
(here it does not display my row and html tags)
I found out that I have my searchpanel and paginator, but cannot use dashboard in advanced?
Please can anyone tell the real differences between view, dashboard, advanced view?
I did, went through the example UI stuff, but couldn't find anything that resolved my issue.
