+++++1 Yes please. if it's core (plugin or not) it shouldn't be optional and should be enabled always. It's just confusing for people and honestly doesn't feel right having core parts disabled/enabled, imagine if the style dock or atlas stuff, etc was optional. Messy and confusing.
The other issue is when some of us don't run with all core plugins enabled all the time it's hard to judge the full state of things as a complete package e.g I see tons of screenshots with the shortest path plugin enabled and taking half the dock space when I bet most people would never use it. So a massive +1 from me on this one. - Nathan On Mon, Dec 12, 2016 at 9:05 PM, Victor Olaya <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi > > This has been discussed in the past, but i think no decision was > taken, so I want to bring back the discussion. > > I think that core plugins should not be visible in the plugin manager, > and users should not be able to disable them.
