@Alex-developer,
I don't see that setting in the version I upgraded to yesterday, so I assume you removed it?

If there is no checking needed after the user changes a setting, its "checkchanges" field in options.json should be removed or set to false.

@spanzetta,
going forward, please don't create Issues in GitHub; instead, create Discussions. Alex and I will convert to Issues as appropriate.

The bug with Inline System Messages is fixed.

To get this to work you will have to do the following

cd ~/allsky
git pull

Then edit ~/allsky/config/options.json

Find the section like below

{
"name" : "uselogin",
"default" : true,
"description" : "Determines if you need to login to the WebUI or not.<br><b>If your Pi is accessible on the Internet, do NOT turn this off!!</b>.",
"label" : "Require WebUI Login",
"type" : "boolean",
"carryforward" : true,
"checkchanges" : true
},
{
"name" : "webuidatafiles",
"default" : "",
"description" : "See the documentation for a <a allsky='true' external='true' href='/documentation/settings/allsky.html'>description of this setting</a>.",
"label" : "System Page Additions",
"type" : "widetext",
"carryforward" : true,
"optional" : true
},

Change it to

{
"name" : "uselogin",
"default" : true,
"description" : "Determines if you need to login to the WebUI or not.<br><b>If your Pi is accessible on the Internet, do NOT turn this off!!</b>.",
"label" : "Require WebUI Login",
"type" : "boolean",
"carryforward" : true,
"checkchanges" : true
},
{
"name" : "inlinemessages",
"default" : true,
"description" : "If enabled system messages are shown at the top of the page rather than via the menu.",
"label" : "Inline System Messages",
"type" : "boolean",
"carryforward" : true
},
{
"name" : "webuidatafiles",
"default" : "",
"description" : "See the documentation for a <a allsky='true' external='true' href='/documentation/settings/allsky.html'>description of this setting</a>.",
"label" : "System Page Additions",
"type" : "widetext",
"carryforward" : true,
"optional" : true
},
