Dashbored 1.2.0

Mark Hamstra | July 27, 2026

Bored of your dashboard? Not with Dashbored!

V1.2 of our fun little dashboard widget collection for MODX 3 adds a Sticky Note (for user-specific note-taking) and Error log widget. It also fixes compatibility with the new Big Brother release, fixes the weather widget, and includes some general maintenance.

Changelog:

  • Add Sticky Notes widget for per-user dashboard notes
  • Add Error Log widget that tails the MODX error.log (usable with large log files) with refresh support
  • Switch Weather widget from the discontinued WeatherDB API to Open-Meteo, including required attributionFix Chart.js conflict with BigBrother by isolating Dashbored's Chart instance
  • Contain Ajax/render errors within each widget so one failure does not break others
  • Update Chart.js and js-confetti client-side dependencies
  • Fix SiteDash widget showing only the footer bar when section display flags were missing from cached API data
  • Remove obsolete Lighthouse PWA score from the SiteDash widget
