How can I permanently set the UI to be UI15 in Istanbul (I've already activated UI16) but don't want users to switch to it

[TrenaFritsche]

We were going to use UI16, but with our testing, we've determined that we do not want our users to be able to switch to use UI16 and want to strictly use UI15 initially.   If we've activated it already in our DEV instance, can we set it to always be UI15 and not allow the switch to UI16 or do I just need to not activate the UI16 plugin when we upgrade our TEST & PROD instances?   I'm trying to get our DEV instance exactly like it will be set in Production when we go live with the upgrade, so I'm trying to figure out the steps I need to do (either reset our DEV instance without the UI16 plugin activated or just change a system property to only use a specific UI if both are available)   Is this possible?.

If you set a system user preference, you can force everyone onto U15:

Table = sys_user_preference

Name = use.concourse

System = true

User = <blank>

Type = string

Value = false

Then there is a sys_properties entry you can modify if needed:

glide.ui.ui15_switch_roles

"Enter a comma-separated list of roles that are allowed to switch between UI16 and UI15."

Default value is admin.
