Aligning data in tables
Please stick to the following alignments in your listing:
| Data type | Alignment |
|---|---|
| Date | Left |
| Datetime | Left |
| Time | Center |
| Money | Right |
| Duration | Right |
| Boolean | Center |
| Text | Left |
| Count (int) | Center (badge) |

Always align the table header to the content cell.
Default theme color
The default theme colors can be changed to one of the following choices:
- skin-blue
- skin-blue-light
- skin-yellow
- skin-yellow-light
- skin-green
- skin-green-light
- skin-purple
- skin-purple-light
- skin-red
- skin-red-light
- skin-black
- skin-black-light
Add this to your local.yaml.
admin_lte:
options:
skin: skin-blue-light
Please note: unless you change the permissions, users can still change the theme color to their wish. It is recommended to leave the choice to the user, as colors and contrasts are not only a matter of personal choice but might also be necessary for people with visual impairments.
Searchable input types
The select boxes for customer, project and activity are by default (since 1.4) searchable Javascript components.
If you don’t like the way this component behaves (eg. if you want native elements on mobile) you can deactivate it by setting the following config
kimai:
theme:
select_type: ~
This will turn the select-boxes into native select elements.
Active entries warning
A small colored warning sign will be shown, if a user has more than X active timesheet entries.
The amount X is configured in your local.yaml with the setting timesheet.active_entries.soft_limit.
Icons
Kimai allows you to configure icons in several places (provided by Font Awesome 5) and ships with a pre-defined list of icon aliases to guarantee a consistent look.
The pre-defined icons aliases can be found in this IconExtension.
Icon aliases can be used by applying the icon filter, e.g.
<i class="{{ 'money'|icon }}"></i>
Colors
Kimai allows you to use different color schemes in several places.
Possible values are:
