Admin Consoles admin-consoles
By default, the ability to switch to the classic UI by way of the Admin consoles is disabled. Therefore, the pop-up icons that were seen when mousing over certain console icons, allowing access to classic UI, are no longer displayed.
Every console that has a Classic UI version in /libs/cq/core/content/nav can be re-enabled individually so that the Classic UI option once again pops up over the console icon when it is moused over.
In this example, you are re-enabling the Classic UI for the Sites console.

Using CRXDE Lite, find the node corresponding to the Admin Console for which you want to re-enable Classic UI. They are found under:
/libs/cq/core/content/navFor example
https://localhost:4502/crx/de/index.jsp#/libs/cq/core/content/nav -
Select the node corresponding to the console for which you want to re-enable Classic UI. For this example, you are re-enabling the classic UI for the Sites console.
/libs/cq/core/content/nav/sites -
Create an overlay using the Overlay Node option; for example:
- Path:
/apps/cq/core/content/nav/sites - Overlay Location:
/apps/ - Match Node Types: active (select the checkbox)
- Path:
-
Add the following boolean property to the overlaid node:
enableDesktopOnly = {Boolean}true -
The Classic UI option is again available as a popover option in the Admin Console.
Repeat these steps for every console for which you wish to re-enable access to the Classic UI version.
