I could see something like this working - at least for the sake of backwards compatibility. I do think it should marking a layer as being queryable should be explicit, so either via TEMPLATE or QUERYABLE (new) keywords. I know this was discussed over the years but I can't recall arguments one way or the other.

Le 27/01/2025 à 13:34, Seth G via MapServer-dev a écrit : Thanks Even and Jukka for the feedback, I'd be a bit hesitant about adding a new keyword QUERYABLE as this would require updating a lot of existing Mapfiles. We could make it such that setting TEMPLATE still implies QUERYABLE ON if it the later is not set in the 8.x series (with some deprecation warning that in MapServer 9 QUERYABLE should be set?) -- http://www.spatialys.com<http://www.spatialys.com/> My software is free, but my time generally not.
