How to default to List View in GCE Manager

When I change the GCE Manager to List View, after a few sessions it seems to switch back to tiled view. Is there a way to force GCE Manager to always use the List View and never use the Tiled View (which adds no value and just takes longer to load)?

  Hey Ethan, sorry it took so long to get back to you.  If you still need to do this, here are some instrucitons:

   

  The default behaviour is for Essentials Manager to remember which view you used last using a cookie, and load that same view.  If you would like to globally change the view, you can do the following (on version 4.4 and up):

   

  1) Edit the file C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Geocortex\Essentials\<InstanceName>\RestManager\App_Data\RestManagerSettings.xml

   

  2) Modify the RestManagerSettings tag to look like this:<RestManagerSettings SitesListView="List">

   

  3) If you would prefer to force tiled view and remove the list option, your tag should look like this:

   

  <RestManagerSettings SitesListView="Tiled">

   

   

   

  Note that this will disable the tile or list view completely.  There is currently no way to keep the toggle option when overriding the default behaviour.
