Dashboard Boxes

The Zen Cart 3.0.0 admin dashboard for Zen Cart 2.0 through 2.3, as an encapsulated plugin. Ten panels replace the stock ones on the admin home page: today's orders, revenue, new customers and pending reviews across the top; a sales chart for the last 30 days; recent orders with status badges, a products popover, invoice and edit links and quick-filter pills; traffic history; orders by status; top sellers; who's online; new customers; sales and specials; and a store snapshot. Drag any panel by its heading into the top strip, the main area or the sidebar. The arrangement is saved as you drop it, for you alone, and every admin keeps their own. A Reset link puts the defaults back.

Nothing in your admin directory is replaced. The panels come in through the notifier the stock dashboard already fires, each admin's layout lives in the plugin's own table, and Chart.js is bundled and served from the plugin directory with nothing loaded from a CDN. Install it from Plugin Manager; uninstall it and the stock dashboard is back with nothing left behind. Order-status colors set under Localization > Orders Status (2.2.1 and later) show as badges. Admin profiles are respected panel by panel. Other plugins can add a panel of their own, or replace the layout about to be rendered, through two notifiers.

The design is ZenExpert's Modern Dynamic Dashboard, merged into Zen Cart core for 3.0.0; portions of the panel code carry their copyright. If your store already carries that dashboard as replacement admin files, the readme lists exactly which files to remove and which to restore.

Zen Cart 2.0.0 through 2.3, PHP 8.0 through 8.5, one codebase, verified on each release branch. On Zen Cart 3.0.0 it installs and stands aside, because that release's own dashboard is this design. GPL-2.0.
