shinydashboardPlus 2.0.0

This release is a major step for shinydashboardPlus. It is also a significant breaking
change compared to the latest CRAN version. Overall this release will simplify the transition from shinydashboard to shinydashboardPlus and bring more consistency, more interactivity between components. Below is the changelog.

Breaking changes

Minor change

Bug fixes

  • Fix #102: dashboardUser not displayed when using shinydashboard::sidebarMenuOutput. ensureActivatedTab was not
    in the global scope, whereas it was needed by the output binding code
  • Fix #107: collapsed = FALSE not working for dashboardControlbar.
  • Fix #56: When controlbar is expanded/collapsed, a plot does not fit in body.
  • Fix #78: Menu Item with Sub Menu Item Arrow Not Rotating.
  • Fix #105: box animation speed. Allow user defined options to prevail over internals.
  • Fix #57: broken default input$sidebarCollapsed.
  • Fix #86: controlbar should also trigger a window resize, like the left
    shinydashboard sidebar. Thanks @ajfisher83
  • Fix ugly layout of the box body (wrong padding and margins) when one puts a sidebar in box()...
  • title is mandatory in accordionItem() (Setting title to NULL would prevent the item
    to be able to collapse ...)
