** Legacy Dashboard System **

Statseeker v5.5.0 introduced a new dashboarding system. The legacy system was removed from new installations, but is still available to users upgrading an existing Statseeker server. This documentation is specific to that legacy system.

For documentation relating to the current dashboarding system see Statseeker Dashboards.

Overview

Statseeker v5.5 introduced the new dashboarding system. Customers upgrading to v5.5 retain their existing dashboards, with full functionality, in the legacy dashboarding system. While there is no intention to disable the legacy dashboarding system in the near future, it will not be updated to take advantage of new functionality and may be disabled entirely in a future release. The two dashboarding systems can run side by side and the legacy system may be disabled at any time.
