Hide "Create a Bucket" in Kanban View

[CacheStacks]

Adding an option to hide the bucket creation button in Kanban view would be nice.

When it’s visible, unnecessary width is added to the horizontal scrollbar.

Perhaps the toggle could be listed under the project name ellipsis hidden menu?

I would also really appreciate it if there were an option to disable the bucket footer. In our setup, when a task is created, various adjustments are made to the task in the background via webhooks and n8n — such as setting relations, labels, and more.

Unfortunately, this means we have to manually reload the page each time. If I move a task without refreshing the page first, some of these automated adjustments are lost.

However, if I create the task using the “List” view, I have to open the task by clicking on it, which causes the updated information to be loaded correctly.

@Christian That sounds more like you want to disable modifications in general. Maybe sharing the project read only would be a better solution?

On a related note, there are plans to add real-time capabilities to Vikunja eventually. I think that would fix your problem completely.

First, thank you for your ongoing work on Vikunja! I know real-time features have been on the roadmap for a while, but I wanted to suggest a potential interim solution that might help with customization.

Would it be possible to implement support for a custom.css file that users could mount in their Docker containers? For example:

• Designate a path like /app/vikunja/custom/ for user-mounted assets
• Have the frontend automatically include custom.css if present

This would:

1. Allow immediate UI customization without core changes
2. Solve multiple theming requests at once
3. Maintain clean upgrade paths (since customizations live outside the container)

I believe many users (including myself) would find this helpful while waiting for real-time functionality. What do you think about this approach?

Add possibility to use custom css

Hello, I see discussion about dark mode but not about custom css. I would be usedful to add this option to have a page css in settings to add custom css property to keep this change with update and don’t touch to the frontend file, like obsidian. For exemple : I would like remove note “#1” number on kanban card Put css property on card if card class “is-done” Thanks in advance,

Disable front api vikunja-url change

Vikunja is brilliant!! But yes it would actually be great to be able to hide this section altogether from the login form as it makes things look unnecessarily complicated and slightly confusing for non-techy users.

Open to a PR about this, but I’d rather make that a user setting.

Hiding this button would be a great FE. It takes up too much monitor real estate
