Enabling / Disabling
Like all modules, this module can be enabled / disabled. Please see the corresponding section of the documentation to find out more about this functionality.

It is still a good idea to limit the amount of text somewhat, as the design of the site may stretch too far in trying to accommodate a large amount of text
