Hi, I want to add some custom functionality on the sidebar: but couldn't find any related information about it. I see that the template is this: /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/paper_lantern/home/index.tt but does it get overwritten with cpanel updates? Thanks, Ignacio

  Hey there! It would likely be best to start working on customizations in the Jupiter theme, as we do plan to deprecate Paper Lantern in the near future. Details on how to perform that work for a plugin can be found here:

  Thanks @cPRex, but how can I add a button (like nginx's "clear cache") or additional information (like Cloudlinux does with inodes) into the sidebar specifically? Using jQuery perhaps?. In that case, how can I insert jquery code to be executed in the home page? we did this using UI includes in Paper Lantern but I can't find UI includes in Jupiter. Ignacio

  The team is actually working on such a functionality literally as we speak, which will allow for UI includes in Jupiter. I can't say exactly when that will get implemented, but we are hoping this gets added before the software is moved to the Release tier.

  Update - if you add the data to /var/cpanel/customizations/content_includes/ those will not get overwritten, and will get added to the sidebar. For example, I created the following file: cpanel_jupiter_tools_stats_before.html.tt and the user interface then updated to look like this: Server Information testing Statistics Disk Usage 42.28 GB / ?
  I'm not sure if that is exactly what you're looking for, but let me know if you have any questions.
