Config Manager

About Config manager

With the Config manager, a wiki user with sysop rights can manage all BlueSpice wiki-wide settings in one place. In the navigation, it is located under Global navigations > Management > Config manager.This link loads the page Special:ConfigManager.

Layout

All settings can be accessed through the following filter menus:

• Feature: group by type of functionality the setting belongs to (search, administration...)
• Extension: group by extension name
• Package: group by BlueSpice edition and services (BlueSpice free, BlueSpice pro, Matomo)
  

All settings are available in any type of grouping. Changing the grouping type does not add or remove setting options. It just groups them differently.

After settings are adjusted, they can be saved by clicking Save, or reset to the default settings by clicking Reset.

Searching for settings

A search bar is located above the list of settings. The search returns settings regardless of the currently selected group.

• Favicon path: The favicon image should be stored in the /images folder of your installation. If you store it in the /skins folder of your BlueSpice installation, it could be overwritten with an upgrade. Favicon images have the file extension .ico.
• Allowed file extensions: For security reasons, the types of files that users can upload are restricted. Here, you can allow additional file formats. If a file format is blacklisted in the server configuration, adding this file extension here will not allow this file type to be uploaded. See mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Configuring_file_uploads for more info.

• Allowed image extensions: The standard web image types are listed here. In general, you want to restrict image uploads to web images. See developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Media/Formats/Image_types for more on browser-supported image types.
