DZBoard Options Tab

Your dataZoa account can apply a variety of style overrides and functionality to your dZBoards.

Terminology

Key Concepts

• The dZBoard Options are a means of custom-styling your dZBoards from a central location.
• A Custom-styling is (typically) CSS or Javascript you add to the HTML headers or footers of displays owned by your account.
• You can add your own stylings or override those used by default by dataZoa

Adding/Editing dZBoard Options

In the housekeeping toolbar, "pick Profile/Preferences under the 'gear' menu".

^

This brings you to a multi-tab page with various account attributes:

• Access the account-wide dZBoard options, use the Gear button and choose the Profile/Preferences entry.
• Use the dZBoard Options panel to examine or edit the headers and footers.
• Note that the custom header and footer fields are empty by default.

Examples

Note: These examples presume some degree of familiarity with common Web technologies like CSS and Javascript.

Example: Remove the default Login option from a public dZBoard

dZBoards typically have a line at the top to allow visitors to login, logout, or create a dataZoa account. This snippet of Javascript will remove it:

• Add this Custom page footer:

  <script type="text/javascript"> $('#container > #MAUActBar').css('display','none'); </script>

• In any dZBoard where you want the line hidden, be sure to checkbox the Apply Custom Header/Footer and save the setting.
