Not possible to disable an included module in a layout

[eki89]

Hey everyone,

i have just seen that it is not possible to disable/enable an included frontend module in layouts. The visibility toggle buttons switchs to grey, but after a reload of the layout dataset the buttun is still green/enabled. I've checked the requests while pressing the button, but only the svg image is loaded. An AJAX request wont be performed.

Did you save the layout after toggling the icon?

I can confirm the issue.

Did you save the layout after toggling the icon?

You shouldn't have to do that, since you do not have to do that anywhere else? Or is it deliberate in this case?

See the comments in ticket #5558

The comments in the ticket don't explain the behaviour though.

Turn off JavaScript and you will see the difference ;)

The enable/disable toggle in the page layout is implemented with a checkbox (hidden when JavaScript is on) and gets triggered by the eye icon. The status of all other visibility togglers is written directly to the database though.

Ah ok :). Still a little unintuitive though.

You have to.

True.
