Documentation: How to disable a plugin

[mantagen]

There doesn't appear to be any documentation on how to disable a plugin (which is enabled by default).

It seems it used to be:

plugins: [{
  cleanupIds: false
}]

but not any more. I've seen in other issues and stack overflow suggest active: false , eg

plugins: [{
  name: "cleanupIds",
  active: false
}]

but this also doesn't work.

Anyway so I took a look at the plugin source code and it seems that the correct way is:

plugins: [{
  name: "cleanupIds",
  params: {
    cleanupIds: false
  }
}]

I'm thinking it might help others to document this. Happy to submit a PR

Edit: ps. there wasn't a "documentation" option available when I opened the issue, hence the label

Is it possible that you need to do this?:

plugins: [{
      name: "preset-default",
      params: {
        overrides: {
          cleanupIDs: false,
        }
      }
    }]

There are instructions for it on the README, though it probably could be clearer. ^-^'

@LuisAlejandro Since v3.0.0, it's called cleanupIds not cleanupIDs. (Case-sensitive!)

Hey! Thanks for proposing this.

We now have documentation for this here:
