Hi Jon, Thanks for the clarification on which manual release you were looking at. I am the technical writer for the project so hopefully someone from the team will address the technical aspect of you issue. If there is a way to disable these within a specific recipe then I can get that information into the documentation.
Does anyone know if this is possible and how to do it?
