My Trips Dashboard
The dashboard at /dashboard is your home base — it lists all your trips, lets you create new ones, and surfaces quick-access widgets.
View Modes
Use the toggle button in the top toolbar to switch between grid (card thumbnails) and list (compact rows). Your preference is saved in localStorage under the key trek_dashboard_view and persists across sessions.
In both modes the dashboard shows a large Spotlight card for your most relevant trip at the top of the page — the toggle only changes how the trips below it are laid out. The spotlighted trip is taken out of that list when it earns the spot on its own: an ongoing trip, or the next upcoming one. If you have neither, the spotlight borrows your first trip for the header and that trip still shows up in the list below.
Searching Trips
On desktop the trips section header has a search box, Search trips or places. It searches every trip you have, archived and completed ones included, whichever filter is selected:
- by the trip's title and description,
- by its dates, written as numbers (
2024-05) or as words (May 2024, in your language), - by a place on the trip, once you have typed at least two letters. A trip found this way lists the matching places under its dates.
Several words must all match, and accents do not matter, so cafe finds "Café". While a search is active, the Planned / Archived / Completed filter is dimmed and the grid shows only the matches; with none, it says No trip matches "…". Clear the box with × or Escape to go back. Offline, the place part of the search is skipped and only titles, descriptions and dates are matched.
Calendar Subscription
The calendar button next to the filter, Subscribe to all trips, opens one calendar feed for all your active trips. See Calendar-Feeds.
Sort Order
Trips are always sorted in this order:
- Ongoing — trips where today falls between the start and end date.
- Upcoming — future trips, sorted by start date ascending (soonest first).
- Past — completed trips, sorted by start date descending (most recent first).
Trips without dates are treated as past.
Spotlight Card
The first ongoing trip — or the next upcoming trip if none is ongoing — is promoted to a full-width Spotlight card at the top of the grid on desktop, where it shows the travel companions, the trip dates, a countdown and the places as a boarding pass. On mobile this card appears as a hero at the top of the page, with a progress bar for ongoing trips and a stats strip (days, places, travel companions).
If you have no trips yet, the spotlight card is not shown.
Archived Trips
Archived trips are kept out of the default list. The trips section header carries a Planned / Archived / Completed filter and the grid shows exactly one of those three sets — switch to Archived to see them. On desktop an archived card has the same four actions as any other card, with Archive turned into Restore. On mobile an archived card drops Edit: you can Copy, Restore, or permanently Delete the trip.
Mobile Header
On mobile, the header is a floating glass bar: the TREK logo on the left (tap it to scroll back to the top), a Notifications button (bell icon, with a dot when something is unread) that navigates to /notifications, and your avatar on the right. The avatar opens the user menu — settings, the admin panel for admins, the dark/light/auto theme cycle, and sign out.
Dashboard Widgets Sidebar
On wide screens a sticky right column shows the Currency, Collections (only with the Collections addon enabled), Timezones, and Upcoming reservations widgets, plus any widget a plugin contributes. Each one is switched on or off separately for desktop and mobile under Settings → Appearance → Dashboard widgets; desktop also has a Right sidebar master toggle that removes the whole column, and the column disappears on its own once every widget in it is off.
On mobile, the same widgets are inline panels below the spotlight card, not a bottom sheet. By default the trip list comes first and the widgets stack underneath it. How they stack — and where the trip list sits among them — is set on the phone under Settings → Appearance → Mobile → Dashboard order.
See Dashboard-Widgets for full usage details.
Per-Trip Actions
On desktop the action buttons sit on the card cover at all times — hovering the card only lifts them from a slightly dimmed resting state to full opacity, and list rows carry the same buttons on their cover. On mobile, action buttons are always visible directly on the card cover. The available actions are:
| Action | Permission required |
|---|---|
| Edit | trip_edit or trip_cover_upload on that trip |
| Copy | trip_create |
| Archive / Unarchive | trip_archive on that trip |
| Delete | trip_delete on that trip |
Which actions appear depends on layout and archive state, not on your role — the dashboard draws the buttons without checking permissions. On mobile a grid card leaves Archive out (it lives in the edit sheet) while a list row includes it. The permissions above are enforced by the server: an action your role is not allowed to perform comes back as a 403 and you get an error message instead of the button being hidden. Permissions do take effect inside the trip dialog — without trip_cover_upload the cover-image panel is not shown, and without trip_edit the title, description, and currency fields are read-only.
Empty State
When you have no trips, the dashboard shows the TREK mascot with the caption No trips yet. Start one from the New Trip button in the bottom-right corner or the dashed New Trip tile at the end of the grid; both open the Creating-a-Trip dialog. On mobile the empty state itself carries a Create First Trip button.
