Changelog

Minor change

• Update jquery-ui to 1.13.2. Thanks @biognosys-so.
• Fix CRAN NOTES.

Breaking change (potential)

• Fix #302: both dashboardSidebar() and dashboardControlbar() default skin value is NULL. This allows them to inherit from the parent dashboardPage() dark parameter and have either a full light or full dark skin. Therefore, it won’t be possible anymore to apply a light sidebar background with the dashboardPage() when the main theme is dark and inversely. If you want to do so, you have to set dark = NULL, for instance:

library(shiny)
library(bs4Dash)

shinyApp(
  ui = dashboardPage(
    dark = NULL,
    header = dashboardHeader(
      title = dashboardBrand(
        title = "My dashboard",
        color = "primary",
        href = "https://adminlte.io/themes/v3",
        image = "https://adminlte.io/themes/v3/dist/img/AdminLTELogo.png"
      )
    ),
    sidebar = dashboardSidebar(skin = "dark"),
    body = dashboardBody(
      box(status = "danger"),
      box(status = "primary"),
      box(status = "orange")
    ),
    controlbar = dashboardControlbar(skin = "dark"),
    title = "DashboardPage"
  ),
  server = function(input, output) { }
)
