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. + +[b]Site config[/b] + [em]system > taganyone[/em] + Allow the tagging of anyone wehter you are connected or not. + [em]system > directorytags[/em] + Set the number of tags displayed on the directory page. + [em]system > startpage[/em] + Set the default page to be taken to after a login for all channels at + this website. Can be overwritten by user settings. + [em]system > proejcthome[/em] + Set the project homepage as the homepage of your hub. + [em]system > workflowchannelnext[/em] + The page to direct users to immediately after creating a channel. + [em]system > max_bookmark_images[/em] + Set the maximum number of images to use when parsing a link. +[color=red]Not sure this does anything. It defaults to 2, I've never seen more than one. Verify before linking from index[/color] + [em]system > max_daily_registrations[/em] + Set the maximum number of new registrations allowed on any day. + Useful to prevent oversubscription after a bout of publicity + for the project. + [em]system > tos_url[/em] + Set an alternative link for the ToS location. + [em]system > block_public_search[/em] + Similar to block_public, except only blocks public access to + search features. Useful for sites that want to be public, but + keep getting hammered by search engines. + [em]system > paranoia[/em] + As the pconfig, but on a site-wide basis. Can be overwritten + by member settings. + [em]system > openssl_conf_file[/em] + Specify a file containing OpenSSL configuration. Read the code first. + If you can't read the code, don't play with it. + [em]system > optimize_items[/em] + Runs optimise_table during some tasks to keep your database nice and + defragmented. This comes at a performance cost while the operations + are running, but also keeps things a bit faster while it's not. + There also exist CLI utilities for performing this operation, which you + may prefer, especially if you're a large site. + [em]system > default_expire_days[/em] + When creating a new channel, set the default expiration of connections + posts to this number of days. + [em]system > dlogfile[/em] + Logfile to use for logging development errors. Exactly the same as + logger otherwise. This isn't magic, and requires your own logging + statements. Developer tool. + [em]system > authlog[/em] + Logfile to use for logging auth errors. Used to plug in to server + side software such as fail2ban. Auth failures are still logged to + the main logs as well. |
