Hide dashboard source code in a view

Hello

All my dashboards show their raw xml source code in the footer. I do not remember how is enabled this, but I know Splunk does not do this out-of -the-box. Can you tell me how to disable this feature. I have attached one of my dashboards to show this occurance.

Thank you in advance.

This looks a lot like you somehow merged the Search & Reporting app with the Dashboard Examples app... likely there's a dashboard.js or application.js sitting in etc/apps/search/appserver/static that's taking Dashboard Examples functionality and adding it to your S&R app.

Thank you! That was the correct cause of this issue. I replaced the etc/apps/search folder with the one from the original installation files, restarted Splunk, and that solved the issue!
