---++ About this page

   * This page is preferences for the entire [[%WEB%.%HOMETOPIC%][%WEB%]] Web (within this overall TWiki site)
   * Web preferences override __site__ preferences set in [[Main.%WIKIPREFSTOPIC%][Main.%WIKIPREFSTOPIC%]]
   * Most Web preferences can be overridden by __user__ preferences (in a personal page like %WIKIUSERNAME% in the [[Main.%HOMETOPIC%][Main]] web)
   * Some Web preferences can also be overridden by __topic__ (page) preferences
   * Preferences are set using TWiki.TWikiVariables (like =%<nop>WEBBGCOLOR%=)
   * For more detail, see TWiki.WebPreferencesHelp
