Is it possible to change or completely remove the menuing/header system from above the charts/graphs on a view? (or all of them)
I am at a customer who is looking to use their own menuing system and include Splunk in it - using their own menus to link directly to the desired view/dashboard. Please let me know how I can change/remove everything with the black background at the top of a Splunk page.
You can quite easily create a custom view (or edit the existing views) in Advanced XML. As a very simple example, this:
<view template="dashboard.html" onunloadCancelJobs="False" autoCancelInterval="100">
<!-- autoCancelInterval is set here to 100 -->
<label>Chart</label>
<module name="Message" layoutPanel="messaging">
<param name="filter">*</param>
<param name="clearOnJobDispatch">False</param>
<param name="maxSize">3</param>
</module>
<module name="HiddenSearch">
<param name="search">* | head 100 | chart count by source</param>
<module name="FlashChart" layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1">
<param name="width">100%</param>
<param name="height">100%</param>
</module>
</module>
</view>
displays just a chart (and error messages).

It wouldnt be that bad to put another dropdown menu system in there. the ServerSideInclude module plus etc/apps/APPNAME/appserver/static/application.js can take you a long way.
However, replacing them with a new menu system from some other javascript or HTML or other library is much more difficult, undocumented, and unsupported.
Hi Jason,
all the appearances in Splunk are manageable by CSS. You have to create a customized yourfile.css that will override default configurations. Maybe could be useful for you the following doc http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/4.1.3/Developer/UseCSS
Bye

Thanks - shutting off visibility in CSS would be one option, but I am also interested in how to put in custom custom menu HTML/JS code in the headers as well.
