Hello anyone and everyone,

I’ve been using ansible-cmdb to generate an inventory webpage. I am trying to specify the “shown columns” that show by default. I am aware of the “-c” option however when I use it, it removes the other unused columns. I want all column buttons to show but I want to be able to customize which one’s are shown under the “host overview”.

I’ve tried to use sed to perform mods directly to the .html page but it’s not providing the expected output.

auto-correct messed up my title. I meant Ansible-cmdb.
