+[b]Advanced Configurations for Power Users[/b]
+
+RedMatrix contains many configuration options hidden from the main admin panel.
+These are generally options considered too niche, confusing, or advanced for 
+the average user.  These settings can be activated from the the top level Red 
+directory with the syntax [code]util/config cat key value[/code] for a site
+configuration, or [code]util/pconfig channel_id cat key value[/code] for a 
+member configuration.
+
+This document assumes you're an actual Power User.
+
+[b]pconfig[/b]
+    [em]system > user_scalable[/em]
+        Determine if the app is scalable on touch screens.  Defaults to on, to 
+        disable, set to zero - real zero, not just false.
+    [em]system > always_my_theme[/em]
+        Always use your own theme when viewing channels on the same hub.  This
+        will break in some quite imaginative ways when viewing channels with 
+        theme dependent Comanche.
+    [em]system > paranoia[/em]
+        Sets the security level of IP checking 
+            Options are: 
+                    0 - no IP checking 
+                    1 - check 3 octets
+                    2 - check 2 octets
+                    3 - check for any difference at all
+    [em]system > protect_tag_hijacking[/em]
+        Prevent foreign networks hijacking system tags for your posts.
+    [em]system > archive_removed_contacts[/em]
+[color=red]I don't think ths works.  Check it before linking from the index then delete this line.[/color]
+        When an connection is removed, don't delete everything, instead, 
+        archive all their posts.
+    [em]system > blocked[/em]
+        An array of xchans blocked by this channel.  Technically, this is a
+        hidden config and does belong here, however, addons (notably 
+        superblock) have made this available in the UI.
+    [em]system > default_cipher[/em]
+        Set the default cipher used for E2EE items.
+    [em]system > network_page_default[/em]
+        Set default params when viewing the network page.  This should contain
+        the same querystring as manual filtering.
+    [em]system > display_friend_count[/em]
+        Set the number of connections to display in the connections profile 
+        widget.
+    [em]system > taganyone[/em]
+        Requires the config of the same name to be enabled.  Allow the tagging
+        of anyone, whether you are connected or not.  This doesn't scale.
+    [em]system > startpage[/em]
+        Another of those technically hidden configs made available by addons.
+        Sets the default page to view when logging in.  This is exposed to the
+        UI by the startpage addon.
+    [em]system > forcepublicuploads[/em]
+        Force uploaded photos to be public when uploaded as wall items.  It
+        makes far more sense to just set your permissions properly in the first
+        place.  Do that instead.
+    [em]system > do_not_track[/em]
+        As the browser header.  This will break many identity based features.  
+        You should really just set permissions that make sense.
