Gives you back the space Zabbix puts around every dashboard widget.
On a wall display or a packed operations board that padding is the difference between one screen and two - this module removes it, and changes nothing else.
Features · Examples · Install · FREE vs PRO · Portal · Docs
Zabbix reserves a few pixels around every widget on a dashboard. It looks fine on a laptop and it is wasted space on a 55" screen in the NOC, where the same board could show a couple more rows instead.
Compact dashboard removes that padding and pulls each widget's header flush with its frame. There is nothing to configure and nothing to learn: install it, enable it, and every dashboard gets tighter. Turn the module off and Zabbix looks exactly as it did before - the module only ships a stylesheet, so there is nothing else it could change.
|
Denser dashboards The padding around every widget is removed, so the same screen fits more of what you actually monitor. |
Headers flush with the tile Widget headers sit on the tile frame instead of floating inside it - cleaner on wall displays. |
|
Nothing to configure Install, enable, done. Every dashboard and every user gets the compact layout at once. |
Stylesheet only No PHP, no API - disable the module and Zabbix looks exactly as before. |
![]() Without module - Standard Zabbix: a gap around every widget. |
There is nothing to configure - install it, enable it, done.
FREE ships as GPG-signed deb / rpm packages from the initMAX repository - apt / dnf installs them and keeps them updated.
Open the product page, pick your OS and edition, and copy the ready-made command. FREE is fully public (no login); PRO fills in your token once you sign in. There's a feedback box right there too.
→ Open the installer on the Portal
Prefer a plain archive? Every release also ships as a ZIP straight from the repo - handy for offline or manual installs.
The module is enabled automatically during the package installation - verify it in Administration → General → Modules. Done.
There is no paid edition - everything below is in the one package.
