Hi @Yusseiin. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- In the refine framework with Chakra UI, you can add a button to the header of your pages using the headerButtons property. This property allows you to customize the buttons at the header of your pages. You can also use the headerButtonProps property to customize the wrapper element of the buttons. Here is an example of how you can add a custom button to the header of a page:
import { Show } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";
import { Button } from "@chakra-ui/react";

const PostShow: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Show
headerButtonProps={{
borderColor: "blue",
borderStyle: "dashed",
borderWidth: "2px",
p: "2",
}}
headerButtons={
<Button variant="outline" colorScheme="green">
Custom Button
</Button>
}
>
<p>Rest of your page here</p>
</Show>
);
};
import { Show } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";
import { Button } from "@chakra-ui/react";

const PostShow: React.FC = () => {
return (
<Show
headerButtonProps={{
borderColor: "blue",
borderStyle: "dashed",
borderWidth: "2px",
p: "2",
}}
headerButtons={
<Button variant="outline" colorScheme="green">
Custom Button
</Button>
}
>
<p>Rest of your page here</p>
</Show>
);
};
In this example, a custom button with a green color scheme and an outline variant is added to the header of the page. The headerButtonProps property is used to give the button a blue border with a dashed style and a width of 2px. You can find more information about this in the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/chakra-ui/components/basic-views/show#headerbuttonprops). As for the auth-chakra-ui example, you can try it on CodeSandbox (https://codesandbox.io/embed/github/refinedev/refine/tree/master/examples/auth-chakra-ui?view=preview&amp;theme=dark&amp;codemirror=1). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To add a button to the top bar where the "collapsing sidebar button" is located, you need to customize the Header component in the ThemedLayout. Here's an example of how you can do this:
import { RefineThemedLayoutV2HeaderProps, HamburgerMenu } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";
import { Box, IconButton, Icon, HStack, Text, Avatar, useColorModeValue } from "@chakra-ui/react";

export const Header: React.FC<RefineThemedLayoutV2HeaderProps> = () => {
return (
<Box
py="2"
pr="4"
pl="2"
display="flex"
alignItems="center"
justifyContent="space-between"
w="full"
height="64px"
bg={bgColor}
borderBottom="1px"
borderBottomColor={useColorModeValue("gray.200", "gray.700")}
>
<HamburgerMenu />
<Button colorScheme="red">Custom Button</Button>
<HStack>
<IconButton
variant="ghost"
aria-label="Toggle theme"
onClick={toggleColorMode}
>
<Icon
as={colorMode === "light" ? IconMoon : IconSun}
w="24px"
h="24px"
/>
</IconButton>
{(user?.avatar || user?.name) && (
<HStack>
{user?.name && (
<Text size="sm" fontWeight="bold">
{user.name}
</Text>
)}
<Avatar size="sm" name={user?.name} src={user?.avatar} />
</HStack>
)}
</HStack>
</Box>
);
};
import { RefineThemedLayoutV2HeaderProps, HamburgerMenu } from "@refinedev/chakra-ui";
import { Box, IconButton, Icon, HStack, Text, Avatar, useColorModeValue } from "@chakra-ui/react";

export const Header: React.FC<RefineThemedLayoutV2HeaderProps> = () => {
return (
<Box
py="2"
pr="4"
pl="2"
display="flex"
alignItems="center"
justifyContent="space-between"
w="full"
height="64px"
bg={bgColor}
borderBottom="1px"
borderBottomColor={useColorModeValue("gray.200", "gray.700")}
>
<HamburgerMenu />
<Button colorScheme="red">Custom Button</Button>
<HStack>
<IconButton
variant="ghost"
aria-label="Toggle theme"
onClick={toggleColorMode}
>
<Icon
as={colorMode === "light" ? IconMoon : IconSun}
w="24px"
h="24px"
/>
</IconButton>
{(user?.avatar || user?.name) && (
<HStack>
{user?.name && (
<Text size="sm" fontWeight="bold">
{user.name}
</Text>
)}
<Avatar size="sm" name={user?.name} src={user?.avatar} />
</HStack>
)}
</HStack>
</Box>
);
};
In this example, a custom button with a red color scheme is added to the header next to the HamburgerMenu (the "collapsing sidebar button"). You can find more information about this in the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/ui-integrations/chakra-ui/components/themed-layout#migrate-themedlayout-to-themedlayoutv2). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
