Description Till Schäfer 2022-04-05 07:42:22 UTC
In previous versions of Kontact, I was able to disable and enable components (e.g., KJots, Calendar, Zanshin) by enableing or disabling a checkbox in front of the component in the settings window. Now I cannot find any such option anymore, which is a problem in two ways: 

1. I cannot re-enable previously disabled views
2. The components sidebar is cluttered with irrelevant components and this sidebar is different on different computers regarding the components installed there. For example, if Zanshin is not installed the component is not show. This also changes short cut assignments, since  Ctrl+Number is associated with the ordered view in that sidebar. This in turn makes them hard to use when working in different environments.

Current workaround is to enable/disable plugins manually via kontactrc (see my example below).

Thus, I would like to see an option again to enable / disable components.

I had to setup my system new. After that I could not find the kjots integration in kontact. According to this description I inserted the  data for kjots integration into /home/[user]/.config/kontactrc without any success. There where no entries for that in the standard file before. Than I used the old kontactrc file, also without success. No kjots integration in kontact.
