How to add "log viewer" & "rest api" to start page

Alan-uk · December 1, 2019, 9:12pm

Just installed openHAB and on the start screen selected Standard. Now watching a YouTube video the presenter’s screen had icons for “log viewer” & “rest api” which will be useful.

How do I add those? I’ve tried google and this forum search but no luck. My searches seem to get customisation of the user panel rather than the developer’s panel.

BTW the initial set up appeared to hang on the please wait page but a view of the log after an hour showed it had well finished. A reload of the webpage solved the problem!

Thanks
Alan

You need to edit the file: dashboard.cfg in the services folder
If the file doesn’t exist create one.
It needs to have the following structure:

pihole.link-name=Pi-Hole
pihole.link-url=http://192.168.0.12/admin/
