Both modules are on after installation.

When a module is on When it is off
Its settings screen appears in the Wing Suite menu: Dark Mode or Ajax Search. Its menu item is hidden.
Its styles and scripts load on your site where they are needed. Nothing of it loads. A module you do not use costs your site nothing.

Switching a module off does not delete its settings. Switch it on again and it continues where it stopped.

Next steps#

Updating and uninstalling#

Updates arrive through the normal WordPress Plugins screen and keep your settings. To remove the plugin, deactivate it and click Delete on the Plugins screen.
