Full documentation in English

A Kimai plugin which allows adding custom content for:

Stylesheet (embedded in all pages)
Javascript (embedded in all pages, except security screens)
A global warning message, shown to every logged-in user
An entire new page to display (markdown formatted) information for your users

Alternative

If you only want to add some custom CSS stylesheets, you can have a look at this free item instead: Custom CSS

Installation

Copy files

Extract the ZIP file and upload the included directory and all files to your Kimai installation to the new directory:

var/plugins/CustomContentBundle/

The file structure needs to look like this afterwards:

var/plugins/
├── CustomContentBundle
│   ├── CustomContentBundle.php
|   └ ... more files and directories follow here ...

Clear cache

After uploading the files, Kimai needs to know about the new plugin. It will be found once the cache was re-built. Call these commands from the Kimai directory:

How to reload Kimai cache

bin/console kimai:reload --env=prod

It is not advised, but in case the above command fails you could try:

rm -r var/cache/prod/*

You might have to set file permissions afterwards:

Adjust file permission

You have to allow PHP (your webserver process) to write to var/ and it subdirectories.

Here is an example for Debian/Ubuntu (to be executed inside the Kimai directory):

chown -R :www-data .
chmod -R g+r .
chmod -R g+rw var/

Test Kimai before executing these commands (they are likely not required in a shared-hosting environment). You probably need to prefix them with sudo and the group might be called different than www-data.
