Local customizations of site-wide preferences

Info Site-level preferences are located in TWiki.TWikiPreferences, however this Main.TWikiPreferences prefs topic has override priority and should be used for local customizations. This allows for easier upgrades as you don't need to worry about the shipped preferences clobbering yours. It's easier to keep a handle on if you only copy over the settings you actually change.

Quick edit of existing preferences (edit the topic text to set new preferences)

Site Specific Site-wide Preferences

  • Set WIKITOOLNAME = GNHLUG
    • This puts our name in the page title always
  • Set SKIN = pattern
    • pattern theme works better with our tall logo
  • Set WEBHEADERART =
    • No graphics background wallpaper for top bar
  • Logo at the upper left of the page
    • All blanked, we are putting logo in WebLeftBar
    • Set WIKILOGOIMG =
    • Set WIKILOGOURL =
    • Set WEBLOGOALT =
  • Set FAVICON = /pub/favicon.ico
  • Set USERSTYLEURL = http://wiki.gnhlug.org/pub/gnhlug.css
  • Set WEBCOPYRIGHT = All content is Copyright © 1999-2025 by, and the property of, the contributing authors.
    • Because the TWiki Web has its own WEBCOPYRIGHT, which uses an unwanted "Contact Us" format, we set our copyright message directly in TWiki.WebBottomBar and do not use WEBCOPYRIGHT there. We set it here as well in case something else uses WEBCOPYRIGHT. Update both when making changes.
  • Set TOPIC_ACCESS_CONTACT = If you need help, please contact GNHLUG.

Final Preferences

  • FINALPREFERENCES locks site-level preferences that are not allowed to be overridden by WebPreferences or user preferences:
    • Set FINALPREFERENCES = ALLOWROOTCHANGE, ATTACHFILESIZELIMIT, DENYROOTCHANGE, DOCWEB, ICONTOPIC, PREVIEWBGIMAGE, SYSTEMWEB, TWIKICOLORSURL, TWIKILAYOUTURL, TWIKISTYLEURL, USERSWEB, WIKIHOMEURL, WIKITOOLNAME

Security Settings

  • Only FIXME
  • Only TWiki administrators are allowed to change this topic:
