[DISCUSS] The `禁用` button on the plugin list page has ambiguity issues

[jie123108 <ji...@163.com>]

Hi Community


I recently used the `apisix-dashboard` in my project, on the plugins list page, for a plugin that had been enabled. 
It may not be appropriate to call it `禁用` here, right?   It would be more appropriate to name it "编辑”.


`禁用` gives the impression that when you click it, the plugin will be disabled. But in fact it is edited (including the disable function)


For those who are familiar with this feature, it may not be a problem. But a newcomer, seeing this `禁用` button for the first time, especially in a production environment, should be afraid to click it.

YES, I agree with you.

Would you be comfortable proposing a PR change to it? If not please
create an issue and the community contributors will fix it when they
are available.

Best regards!

Hi Jie,

I just checked and it's using `启用（Enable）` and `禁用（Disable）` indeed, that's
because we want to provide a clear status of that plugin.

After consideration, a plugin has 3 kinds of statuses: Enabled, Disabled,
Not Configured.

How about using `配置/编辑（Configure）` for that button, and adding a status
badge on that plugin card? so users will know its Enabled/Disabled status?

Best Regards!
