Thoughts on either of these two templates? - mudmin - 09-03-2017
It's hard to find powerful bootstrap templates that we can redistribute. Any thoughts on these? I know changing the template is probably a bad idea, but I'm looking at doing it for some of my personal projects (at least on the front end).

The first one is my favorite...I don't know how I would roll this into my project (wise of frontend work) but I'm sure I can manage...
The second one is okay but not my first choice.

I like... neither! I know, I'm a party pooper! I just dislike sidebars.
Metis has some out of date dependencies (file manager, for example). They might be updateable though. If we were to pick one I'd go with Gentelella, since Firestorm has been doing some work with that one already.

I like the first one too. My thought is that I/we could redo the back end of userspice and just make it available to the front end. I'm not totally pushing for it. I can redo the front end of my other projects instead. Just a thought.
As my management software has grown, so has the dashboard. I think I'm going to need tabs/sidemenus to make it more manageable.

Yeah. We just need to get @Firestorm or @Picassoo back here doing some css work since I'm not great with the aesthetics.

My only liking of the sidebar is for admin purposes......I wouldn't want it on my frontend....I would end up customizing it/not using it on my frontend I am more than positive.

And your management system looks awesome! Would be cool to see it in action!

It does a ton of really useful things. It manages time off and vehicles and maintenance and event bookings. It's just getting out of hand with the number of panels.
Agreed. The sidebar/tabs would only be a backend thing. I don't see any reason that we push any particular design language on the front end. The only reason we provide what we do is to be a starting point.

Yes it would!
I'm all for pushing it to be a backend thing...optionally of course. We could have Legacy and New for the admin panel?
