glide.ui.disable_attachment_view Not Working

[Nia McCash]

According to Hide the attachment [view] link, I should be able to add a system property of glide.ui.disable_attachment_view in order to hide the [view] link on attachments but this isn't working for me.

I added the property as instructed but it doesn't seem to be working as expected.   I can still see the [view] link.

I feel like I'm missing something very simple but I don't know what.   Why is the glide.ui.disable_attachment_view not working for me?

Thanks Nia for the update. Can you do cache.do once and check.

[Nia McCash]

I did a cache.do and tested again using a private/incognito window in a brand new login session - still doesn't work.

I have tested this on two different instances (my company's dev instance and my personal developer instance). However, I am doing the same actions on both so perhaps I'm simply replicating something wrong or missing the same action on both instances.

Which release are you on?

Hi Nia,

Let me try this on my instance and get back to you.

Which release is your instance on?

I've now tried this on two Geneva instances (patch 4 and patch 6) and one Helsinki Patch 2 instance.

I noticed that in the attachment_entry UI Macro on lines 20-22, the variable jvar_show_link is set within a conditional but it is not set anywhere outside of the conditional.

    <j:if test="${jvar_edge_invalid == 'true' || gs.getProperty('glide.ui.disable_attachment_view') == 'true'}">

            <j:set var="jvar_show_link" value="false" />

    </j:if>

I believe this is the problem but I'm not certain since abhi_r says that it works for him.
