Usecase

When you start a new website with a preset template with samples, there can be many modules in the webpages. Save precious time by removing all unwanted modules just clicking on them, avoiding searching each one in the Joomla Backend.

Yan can publish it again when you want. The unpublished module is visible. You can go hover it, and use the module toolbar to publish it again.

Operations

This functionnality is 100% Joomla complient. When you remove a Joomla module with the NextGenEditor toolbar, the new status of the module is saved in the current settings of the module. If you go in Joomla administration, you see the module with the trashed status. You can both remove modules in the Frontend with NextGenEditor or in the Joomla Backend.
