Enable/disablescripts
Adisabledscriptwillnotrunatallwhenthetemplateismergedwitharecordsettogenerateoutput.Dis-
ablingscriptexecutionincertaincontextsorsectionshelpswithperformance,sincescriptsnormally
run,whetherornottheirplaceholderorselectorispresentinyourtemplate.Itishighlyrecommendedto
disableanyscriptthatisnotrelevanttospecificsectionsorcontexts.
Whenyoudisableafolder,allscriptsinthefolderwillbedisabled.
Toenableordisableascriptorafolder:
l
OntheScriptspane,right-clickthescriptorthefolderandclickDisable(ifthescriptorfolder
wasenabled)orEnable(ifthescriptorfolderwasdisabled).
