| Summary | 14616: Disable AJAXMode by default or deactivate AJAXMode completly | ||||
| Description | The amount of issues in the forum, which can be solved by deactivating AJAXmode is still high. If the development of AJAX mode follows a higher purpose, the aim should be made clear. The recommendation to deactivate AJAXmode could be part of the installation manual someday.  | ||||

| 
	 I also strongly vote for disabling the Ajax mode by default and also consider removing the feature from LS 4. I do not see any benefit of that feature. Is that document somewhere?  | 
|
| 
	 +1 ;)  | 
|
| 
	 According to @c_schmitz at the DEV meeting back in April the Ajax mode will be turned off by default. Not sure if this already applies to LS 3 or will be changed at LS 4 only.  | 
|
| 
	 
  | 
|
| 
	 ok  | 
|
| 
	 Any update on the status?  | 
|
| 
	 So if I get it right, it is just the theme option "ajax mode" in bootwatch, fruity, and vanilla that has to be changed? Or is there a global way of overriding the inherited theme options?  | 
|
| 
	 @f_funke, at our custom templates and shop templates we switch the Ajax mode off by default by adding a line to the config.xml file of the template.  | 
|
| 
	 Of course, the long term solution would be to also clear the codebase and remove any Ajax mode related code.  | 
|
| 
	 Personnaly i totally remove all ajax system in my templates …  | 
|
| 
	 I'm pretty sure f_funke will remind LouisGac of this forgotten ticket. Not marking AJAXmode as experimental is constantly hurting the userexperience of LimeSurvey.  | 
|
| 
	 Thanks for reminding, Jelo!  | 
|
| 
	 I just added two more relations. Ajax mode also seems to cause problems with the question index and using jumping.  | 
|
| 
	 One more  | 
|
| 
	 It's a litmus test for the upcoming LimeSurvey designer certification. "What is the first thing you'll have to do starting a survey project?" Correct answer: Watch the AJAXmode and deactivate it.  | 
|
| 
	 lol !!!  | 
|
| 
	 Can be closed? See:  | 
|
| 
	 @f_funke: Why should a bug report for LS3 be closed if the bug is fixed in LS4?  | 
|
| 
	 I checked demo.limesurvey.org (running 3.19.3) and a local fresh installation (3.19.29) and I don't see AJAX in the theme options anymore.  | 
|
| 
	 @f_funke: 3.19.29 ? You mean 3.19.2. Sounds like the AJAX -Fix was already backported to LS3. But the developers involved should be able to give a status report. The release notes are not indicating any change in the 3.19.1-3 versions.  | 
|
| 
	 @ JHoeck: Can you confirm?  | 
|
| 
	 Ajax has been deactivated some time ago  |
