Draggable dashboard (home) w/ collapsibility

[corbit09]

Has anyone thought about this feature? I think it would be nice to be able to drag the tiles around and be saved to my liking. Also, collapsible tiles would be awesome on the home page!

This looks good, I may get around to taking a look at it, (I posted it 3 months ago)

@corbit09 I see no reason why a theme can't extend itself to allow this... in core, it's a different story. There's an order picked by the admin which would serve as "default", and a theme like lavender could then allow users to re-order via drag/drop, and save the ordering in the browser's local storage (meaning the order would be reset if the user cleared their cache or switched browsers/computers).

oh wow, cool library

I definitely like the drag and drop function and would like to see someone (or myself) put it into a theme of theirs; this kind of customization is sometimes key to folk who like that sort of thing.

@julian you mentioned that it'd save the ordering in the browser's local storage, but is there a way to save/load configurations for users who are logged in/have accounts?

[julian]

@Tanner yup, just slightly more work as you'd have to wire up the save/load calls when the homepage is loaded.

You could get away with doing the save only, if there were a hook for home page retrieval, but to my knowledge, we don't have one... (yet?)
