Help understanding " ftgd-wf enable" configuration

Question

I' ve drawn a blank on this one and hope someone can help clarify.    What do the " enable"  and " disable"  commands do in the configuration snippet below?    The CLI docs say the following for enable:    " Enable FortiGuard Web Filtering categories for use in local ratings.   Enter ' all'  to enable all categories, classes, and groups or enable   individual categories, classes, and groups."     Any changes I make via the CLI, though, don' t seem to have any effect on the categories that are available in the GUI.    I think I am missing something fundamental here.      config webfilter profile   edit " mytestProfile"    ...  config ftgd-wf                  set options error-allow http-err-detail redir-block                  set enable g01 g02 g04 g05 g06 g07 g21 151 144                  set disable 148 149 146 141 142 140 143 150 147 145 152                  set ovrd 3 4 59 14      Thanks.

enable and disable has only an effect on local/custom categories you' ve defined by yourself.    imagine you have 3 different own defined blacklist for 3 different user groups.  blacklist1  blacklist2  blacklist3  --> all are active in profile1.    by default, all local webfilter categories are enabled:    now in a profile you can disable some local categories:  blacklist1 is only enabled in profile1 (2 and 3 can be disabled)  blacklist2 is only active in profile2  blacklist3 is only active in profile3      this behaviour was broken in 4.3, but should fixed (and reflected by the GUI) in your 4.3.14.  currently it' s only for local/custom categories
