AdminLTE Javascript Options

Modifying the options of AdminLTE's app.js can be done using one of the following ways.

Editing app.js

Within the main Javascript file, modify the $.AdminLTE.options object to suit your use case.

Defining AdminLTEOptions

Alternatively, you can define a global options variable named AdminLTEOptions and initialize it before loading app.js.

Example

<script>
  var AdminLTEOptions = {
    //Enable sidebar expand on hover effect for sidebar mini
    //This option is forced to true if both the fixed layout and sidebar mini
    //are used together
    sidebarExpandOnHover: true,
    //BoxRefresh Plugin
    enableBoxRefresh: true,
    //Bootstrap.js tooltip
    enableBSToppltip: true
  };
</script>
<script src="dist/js/app.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
