Any 0.6 specific features we should be aware of?

I'm using it at the moment and damn is it sexy!

Has the config section not been done yet, or am I doing something wrong?
The config page(s) show nothing but black, and the 3 nonfunctional tabs at the top.

This looks REALLY good! I love the desktop feel to it.

My only suggestion off of the top of my head, is that history would work better under queue still. They both feel a little cramped on my screen.

Thanks for all of the great work!

0.6 doesn't exist yet, and we haven't even figured out what 0.6 will consist of, so don't expect to see any 0.6 stuff in this theme. Pair is listing it as 0.6 because this theme is in no way expected to be ready for 0.5 final.

Read the roadmap in the OP or the changelog. There's barely anything done so far. All we've got so far is queue and history.

Again, it looks superb and I'll have a hard time waiting for this :)

Is it possible to remove/hide the bloat under each jgrid box? The history and queue boxes have pagination, end of pages arrow, start of pages arrow etc. Uneeded but could appear once queue is above whats visible on screen perhaps.

Hi why does the UI would probably never be integrate with plush?
It could make the 0.6 version on it own.

Great job and good luck with the dev

It will not be packaged with 0.5, and maybe not with any SABnzbd+ release ever.
Why not ever?

Also I tried to download the current release but the links seems to be broken

I could try and help out. My HTML+CSS knowledge is very decent and my JavaScript is also good but not that good. Any suggestions on what I could provide code for ?

edit: already looked up how your code works and added this bit:

pair of dimes wrote: Hi JustJv it would be great to get help. What I haven't been able to figure out is the best layout for the queue and history. I'd like to build this with as much of the default mechanisms provided in jqueryui/jqgrid/jqlayout as possible. Maybe jqlayout is taking it a step too far, past what is really needed. Start by visiting the websites for these 3 javascript libraries, viewing the demos, and comparing what is available with what I have added to Concept.

Some of the questions are:

- what layout/orientation for queue/history?
-- side by side? (wastes half screen if say the queue is empty)
-- queue above history? (very wasteful of horizontal space, like current plush theme)
-- combined queue/history into one list? (difficult to determine how it would function)
-- different tab panes for queue/history? click a different tab to view queue, then another to view history, but not at same time (even more wasteful of space?)

- queue functions
-- have per-nzb option selections (like plush and all other themes currently) or have a single set of option selections which apply to checked nzbs (allows setting multiple nzbs at the same time)
-- how to handle drag and drop of nzbs, in conjunction with jqgrid pagination (if at all)
-- show nzb file contents (rars/pars) inline (in jqgrid), down below (different pane using jqlayout), or in a popup thing (think lightbox)

I've explained some of the benefits before, like having a web interface such as this be easily theme-able by anyone. It however must have an intuitive interface or else why not just use one of the more basic themes already provided with sabnzbd? If it's annoying to use, then it would be pointless to spend time building it.
I personally like the current Plush theme with the queue above history but I would make it so that you can toggle the pane for history

Is there a Svn repository that we can check out so we can have the last version and eventually help.

I would really like to see this theme completed. I'd be willing to donate.
