Carsten Ziegeler created SLING-6790:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Enable aliases even if referenced format is disabled
Key: SLING-6790
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6790
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Servlets
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: Servlets Get 2.1.24
When one of the default renderings is disabled and an alias exists for this,
the alias rendering is disabled as well. For example, it is common to have the
PDF rendering as an alias for XML (as the PDF rendering is based on using an
XML pipeline including XSLT to generate PDF). If XML is disabled, PDF doesn't
work either and right now, the only way to get PDF rendering work is enabling
XML as well. Which might not be what you want.
So I think, if an alias exists - which is an explicit configuration - this
should be enabled, regardless whether the underlying direct rendering is
disabled.
