Configuration
You can customise Default Dashboard’s settings using a PHP configuration file. This is optional: each setting has a default, so you only need to include the values you want to change.
To override a setting, create default-dashboard.php in your Craft project’s /config directory and return an array of setting names and values. For example, the following will exclude administrators from dashboard overrides:
<?php
return [
'excludeAdmin' => true,
];All other settings keep their defaults. Add any further settings you want to change to the same array. The options below explain the available settings and their defaults.
Configuration Options
Type: int · Default: 1
Set the user ID to use as the default dashboard, mirrored to all other users.
Type: bool · Default: true
Whether to force the default dashboard, overwriting any user-specific ones. This will occur on each login.
Type: bool · Default: false
Whether to exclude the admin user when force overwrite is enabled. This will occur on each login.
Control Panel
You can also manage configuration settings through the Control Panel by visiting Settings → Default Dashboard.
