Dashticz - Installing a second dashboard

Hi Guys,

I'm a happy user of Dashticz, have a nice dashboard running on my 10" tablet, framed, on the wall.
I came up with the idea to have a smaller one in the bedroom, so i need a new design for a smaller 5" smart screen now...

I have tried to install into a different directory, which was successfull, although i noticed there was a notification "dashticz container already exists".
I do not exactly understand what consquences that might have, but i do have a second dir "dashticz2"
The installation script found the next available port 8083 in my case.
To get a quick start in setup i copied the CONFIG.js from dashticz to dashticz2 custom dir, but there's no response at all on this port.
What have i missed and/or can i do to get this to work?

By the way, a nice tweak would be if it would be possible to bind port, config, css, etc. through a configuration so one setup would be able to serve multiple dashboards.

Thanks!
Marco

You can use the custom_2 folder for an 2nd configuration. You have to add index2.html to the normal url.
