Magento - xml layouts, specify value for ifconfig?

Question

I\'m sure I saw before somewhere, specifying a value for xml ifconfig statements (as default is just boolean). Anyways, disabling modules in the admin doesn\'t actually work

You could create a separate enable setting using nothing but your module's system.xml.

    
        
            
                
                    
                        
                            YOUR MODULE
                            select
                            adminhtml/system_config_source_enabledisable
                            1
                            1
                            1
                        
                    
                
            
        
    

Then use the new setting in the layout file:
