Hi @ll

how can/should i create a Dashboard, like the one in WP-Admin already (Welcome/Activity etc.), where i (and later the user) also can "add" some Charts/infos Boxes etc. And then move (via drag&drop) them around.

Thanx a lot for any Idea

Hi Reinhard,

Unfortunately, the plugins don't support creating dashboard widgets. Please follow this docs to do so:

If you're using Elementor, here is a good tutorial on doing that:
