Dashboards & Visualizations

Dashboard stuck on loading

Hi all,

I inserted a submit button in a form in the source code of a dashboard, but that's not possible, unlike an input field. Input fields can be placed inside dashboard items.

My guess is that the source code isn't being compiled and gets stuck on "loading...". The problem is that I can't access the source code because I can't click on Edit.

Is there any way to undo my last change or access the source code somehow? I read something about using Element inspect, but I'm not sure on what to change.

Thanks.

If you don't have an edit button, try accessing the source by explicitly using the URL. Just put this on the end of the URL after your dashboard name: /editxml
