Well, this is undoubtedly not a critical issue, but it is really annoying and I cannot figure out how to fix it.
One of my servers (turns out my main Cloudmin server) has for some reason gotten into a state where on the Webmin configuration page all of the items are displaying as icons only. Now also, apparently I am seeing a really odd behavior there where you cannot click on the icon to go to the config screen - but middle clicking WILL open that in a new tab. I really want to change this to act the same as it does on all my other servers. I simply cannot find the place on the config pages to set these to display as icon with text, and I can't find anywhere to make these icons open when I click on them. This is more annoying than anything, but it seems weird that I used to be able to find that option but cannot now.
Webmin config page is icons only and I can no longer find where to change that???

Hmm, can you share a screenshot of what it is you're seeing there?

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you on this - this is a screen capture of the webmin config page on that server. Just icons, no text, and I cannot figure out how to change that. But worse, the behavior of this screen is a little crazy in that the only mouse button that does ANYTHING to the icons is the middle mouse button, and that opens a new tab with the config. I'd like to get this server to act like all the others again.

Wow, that is odd. Do you see this in any other Webmin modules?

Ilia, do you happen to know of an option that could cause the options in Webmin -> Webmin -> Webmin Config to no longer show text, and instead only show the icons themselves?
Hi,
Yes, of courses. There is an option in theme configuration, under section Tables Option. All you need, is to set to display small icons to no.
It was enabled by user and off by default.
Speaking about not working clicks, yes, I have already noticed it few days ago and fixed it for the next 18.40 version. At the moment it will work if you double click it.
It leaked from that part of the code, where such icons act as checkboxes, in BIND module for example.
Iconless mode is also going to be fixed/improved in 18.40

Excellent, thanks Ilia!
cruiskeen, does it help to change the parameter Ilia mentioned above?

Much better, thank you - I just somehow did not see that configuration option, or at least it didn't occur to me that this was the problem.
