Wow!  I look forward to that! Same for the checkbox feature.

Your changes worked, thank you very much.

My vote would be in the configuration, since a site would either need it, or not, thus eliminating an additional checkbox to be selected. One checkbox that I can imagine being quite useful is the choice of either line graph, or pie chart.

Well, since you're asking ;-)

Some questions:

1.  What is the purpose for the first pie-chart titled "24x7 Availability" with the word "Tests" in an outlined box?


2.  The only graphs I am displaying are "Daily graph for CPU load" and "Daily graph for memory utilization", "Daily graph for network traffic" and "Daily graph for CPU utilization" both show up as "No graph".  Do they require some additional work; I've not gone so far as to read about custom graphs given my prior issues.

This is an awesome addition to Xymon, one that gives it a more professional look and feel, thank you.
