# WordPress Dashboard — Idea No.3

Here is another [take on how to improve WordPress Dashboard](https://kaspars.net/examples/wordpress-dashboard/03/index.htm). See also the [Widget Administration section](https://kaspars.net/examples/wordpress-dashboard/03/design.htm).

[![WordPress Dasboard User Interface Idea No.3](https://kaspars.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/wordpress-ui-idea-03.png?strip=all&quality=90&resize=1136,624)](https://kaspars.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/wordpress-ui-idea-03.png)WordPress Dasboard User Interface Idea No.3### Things to note:

- if more than three main menu items are expanded, the one which was first opened is automatically closed;
- the *move* cursor for dashboard widgets is displayed after a small delay after hovering the widget header area;
- colorful *ribbons* for widget boxes.
