Disabling of plugins does not work

[jith45]

maybe this is how it was suppose to be, but when i select plugin from plugin tab and shut it down it remain active (after F5 it is status "Enabled").

BTW, what is prerequisite for enabling diskspace plugin?

TY, danij3l

If you need to disable plugin, you must
1) Shutdown it via menu
2) Add section to conf/plugins.ini or|and conf/users/[username]/plugins.ini.

Why can't we disable the plugin directly from webui? It could simply write data to global or user plugins.ini files once disabled/enabled.
It looks pretty easy I could get this coded if agreed on the flow.

you can disable a plugin from the webui if the user has access to the plugin tab, but it's not permanent.

to disable it permanently, do what novik said


The best way to keep plugins working for some users but allow it for others is to use the ini files like novik said...if you don't need the plugin for any user, simply delete the entire plugin.
