shinydashboardPlus | extensions for shinydashboard | Data Visualization library

I am building a Shiny app to display variables of the "European Social Survey" (table and graph). Therefore I created conditional panels with "selectInput" where the user can select which variable should be displayed. In a second step I want to group the displayed variable by e.g. gender. For doing so I included a checkbox. If this checkbox is TRUE a further conditional panel shows up where the user can choose the independent variable. I tried to group the plot by using the facet_grid command - without success. Further I tried the generate a very simple crosstable (trying both a datatable command with a dataframe and a table command; latter in the expample below) - also without success.

Any advice?

In my shinydashboard app, I want to specify a different tabName in the sidebarMenu from the tabName in the body. The server function should then catch the tabName on click and call updateTabItems.

The idea is, that some menu items in the sidebar should go to the same tab, and the longer tabName in the sideBar contains additional information used to fill the tab.

When both tabNames in sideBar and tabItems are the same, the code works. However, if I change the tabName in the sideBar, e.g. to one_param_val, updateTabItems stops working.

Any ideas why that is and what I can do about it?

Background I am using {brochure} and {golem} to build a shiny app. I have one outer module grid that consists of inner modules subGrid2 which displays the same module UI on two tabs.

GOAL

• have a module subGrid2 that can be used for repeating graph visualizations on multiple tabs.
• in the REPREX --> fake graph generated from {shinipsum} to be displayed on the "Home" tab + "Portfolio" tab
• use observeEvent to look at the slected tab and generate server response respectivley

Problem

The observeEvent reactive expr. fails to recognize when the corresponding tab is selected to generate the correct server response.

-using the reprex below replicates my issue-

TL/DR

1. Why wont the observeEvent reactive generate the correct server response per the selected tab?

REPREX

uncomment observeEvent to see error

I have 5 separate files and I'm trying to source them all in the main app.R file but when I run app.R, I get this error:

Warning: Error in input_ui: could not find function "input_ui"

input_ui is defined in input_module.R and I source input_module.R so I'm not sure the error.

I'm trying to toggle the control bar using an actionLink in the top right (to basically copy what the gears icon is doing, and later I will remove the gears icon to just have one actionLink) and also to automate the toggling such that when the user clicks on feedback, the controlbar disappears and reappears when the user clicks on any other tab. I also want to make sure throughout this toggling, the controlbar does not overlay on the dashboard body (basically the dashboard body will resize appropriately whenever the control bar toggles).

This is what I've tried so far:

I'm trying to customize how my R shiny app looks like and playing around with various elements on the page.

Just wondering how do I remove this toggle icon from the header? I've tried something like this but it doesn't work:

I'm trying to allow the user to add successive UI output seen in server_module2 from another module (ui_module1). So, when they hit the button, they will see 3 UI objects: textOutput, sliderInput, textInput. My code below stops at outputting the UI object. If I don't wrap it in the 1st module, it works fine.

Thank you.

I need to update/reverse two inputs from drop down inputs upon a button press. At the moment when I hit the swap button (reverse_xz), it reacts however the updatePickerInput doesn't switch my x and z inputs.

I wanted to have the functionality where, once the swap button is clicked, switch the already selected pickerInputs. Then, all the drop down choices (including the selected) need to get reversed. The reason we have to remove the selected choices from vector is to prevent duplicate selections in both x and z inputs.

I am not sure if I have to render the pickerInput ui on the server side?!

This is my code below:
