Looking at the screenshot, I can see a Campus Lost & Found Dashboard with:

• A light-themed sidebar navigation on the left (with teal/mint active states)
• Main content area with stat cards showing metrics (Items Posted: 3, Claims, etc.)
• Four action cards with icons (Search, Post Lost Item, Share Found, Manage)
• A dark section at the bottom showing recent activity items

The current design uses pastel-colored stat cards (blue, teal, peach, green, purple, pink) and has a contrasting dark section for recent activity. The user wants to refine this to align better with the website's color palette using whitish and complementary tones for a more cohesive, polished, and professional appearance.

Let me redesign the dashboard to create a cleaner, more harmonious look with improved visual hierarchy.

Now I'll redesign the dashboard with a cleaner, more cohesive whitish color palette with subtle accent colors that align with the website's branding (emerald green and complementary tones).

I've redesigned the DashboardHome with a cleaner, more cohesive aesthetic. The redesign features:

Key improvements:

1. Whitish, clean card design - All stat and action cards now have a pure white background with subtle gray borders instead of pastel backgrounds
2. Cohesive accent colors - Replaced rainbow of colors with teal, emerald, amber, green, cyan, and blue that work harmoniously together
3. Improved visual hierarchy - Larger, bolder numbers on stat cards with subtle icon backgrounds instead of full-colored cards
4. Consistent styling - All components use rounded-xl corners, light borders, and hover effects with shadows for depth
5. Better spacing and typography - Refined padding, font sizes, and whitespace for a more polished appearance

The new design maintains full functionality while presenting a much more professional, modern, and visually cohesive interface that aligns with the website's branding.

Looking at the provided images:

Image 1 (Previous screenshot): Shows the newly redesigned /app/dashboard with clean white cards, stat metrics (Items Posted: 3, Claims: 0, etc.), 4 Quick Action cards, and a recent activity section at the bottom.

Image 2 (Current screenshot): Shows the old /dashboard (StudentDashboard) at localhost:5173/dashboard with similar but slightly different layout - has tabs (Overview, Search Items, My Claims, Inbox, Items Found), 5 stat boxes, and Quick Actions buttons. This is the duplicate that needs to be removed.

I can see there are clearly two dashboards running simultaneously. Let me identify and remove all duplicates, keeping only the new /app/dashboard approach.

Good! I found the duplicates. Now let me check the Router to understand what needs to be cleaned up:

Let me continue reading the Router to find all duplicate routes:

I can see the duplicate routes. There's a /app/* section (new) and a legacy /dashboard, /profile, /myItems section (old). Let me read the full Router to see the exact structure and remove the duplicates:

Now I understand the issue. There are:

1. Old routes (/dashboard, /profile, /myItems, etc.) using StudentDashboard and UserLayout
2. New routes (/app/dashboard, /app/profile, /app/my-items, etc.) using DashboardHome and DashboardLayout

I'll remove all the duplicate old routes and the StudentDashboard component. Let me also check if there are other duplicate pages like SearchItems vs DashboardSearch:

Let me directly remove the legacy routes from the Router and delete the StudentDashboard file:

Now remove the StudentDashboard and UserLayout imports since they're no longer used:

Now delete the StudentDashboard directory and UserLayout file:

Now let me check if there are duplicate search pages and profile pages (old vs new). Let me search for all references:

Good! I can see:

• SearchItems is used in the public /search route (line 186) - this is for public search on the marketing site
• DashboardSearch is used in /app/search (line 131) - this is for authenticated users in the dashboard

These are not duplicates, they serve different purposes. The public one is for the marketing site, the dashboard one is for authenticated users. Let me verify there are no other duplicates by checking if UserProfile and UserProfileNew both exist:

Good, UserProfile is only used once. Let me check if UserProfileNew actually exists and if it's being used anywhere:

Good! UserProfileNew isn't being used anywhere, so it can be deleted. Let me remove it:

Now let me check if there are any references to the old routes in components that might redirect users to /dashboard instead of /app/dashboard:

Several files have old route paths. Let me fix them systematically. Let me start with the most important ones:

Found it! There's a navigate to /dashboard. Let me fix that and similar issues in other files:

Now let me fix the other files with old routes. Let me check PostDetails:

Now let me fix the remaining files with old routes:

Let me fix these files:

Now let me check the remaining files for old routes:

The Navbar has many old routes. However, the Navbar is for PUBLIC pages. Let me check if it should still have these old routes or if they should redirect. Looking at the structure, the Navbar is public and should link to the PUBLIC search/items pages, NOT the authenticated dashboard. The authenticated dashboard has DashboardNavbar. So the Navbar links should be fine as they are for unauthenticated users. However, for authenticated users clicking these links in the Navbar, they should redirect to their dashboard. Let me verify if Navbar is still being used:

The old Navbar is still being used. Let me check what layouts use it:

Good, the PublicLayout uses PublicNavbar. Now let me check MainLayout:

MainLayout is using the old Navbar. Let me check if MainLayout is being used in the Router:

Good, MainLayout is not used in the Router anymore. Let me delete it since it's unused:

Now the old Navbar is also not used anywhere. Let me delete it too since we have PublicNavbar and DashboardNavbar:

Now let me check the remaining files (Footer, AllItems, Admin) for old routes:

The Footer is linking to public pages (/addItems, /allRecovered) which are public routes. These should be okay since Footer is on the public site. However, let me check if these public routes still exist:

These routes don't exist in the public routes. The Footer has old links. Since AddItems and AllRecovered are now authenticated routes under /app/*, these footer links should be updated to point to public alternatives. Let me check if AllItems is the public version:

Looking back at the Router output, I saw /allItems is a public route. There's no public AddItems or Report Item route for unauthenticated users. Footer links to /addItems which doesn't exist - this should either be removed or redirected. Let me check AllItems to see if it handles both lost and found or just one type:

Good, AllItems shows all items. Now let me update the Footer to fix the broken links:

Now let me create a summary document of what was cleaned up:

I've successfully removed all duplicate components, routes, and pages from your application. Here's what was cleaned up:

Cleanup Summary

Deleted 5 files:

• Old StudentDashboard component
• UserLayout (replaced by DashboardLayout)
• MainLayout (unused)
• Old Navbar component (replaced by PublicNavbar and DashboardNavbar)
• Duplicate UserProfileNew file

Removed legacy route section with all old /dashboard, /profile, /myItems etc. paths that were duplicates

Updated 7 component files to use new /app/* routes:

• UserProfile, PostDetails, MyItemsPage, UpdateItems, PostLostItem all now redirect to correct /app/ paths
• Footer links fixed to point to valid public routes

Final Architecture:

• Public site (/): Uses PublicNavbar and PublicLayout
• Authenticated dashboard (/app/*): Uses DashboardNavbar, DashboardSidebar, and DashboardLayout
• Admin area (/admin/*): Uses AdminLayout
• Auth pages (/signin, /register): Uses AuthLayout

The application is now clean, with no duplicates, and all navigation properly consolidated. Every link points to a valid route!
