| Configuration File / Registry Editor |
|
In Sobi2 there are some configuration settings in a separate configuration file config.ini. This file is located in /components/com_sobi2/includes/inc. Since version RC2.8.4, this file can be edited within the administration panel of Sobi2 in the so called Registry Editor. The configuration file is divided into sections, keys and values. In the Registry Editor you don't have to concern about the correct file syntax. Enter only the desired values to the corresponding keys. If you don't use the Registry Editor be careful while editing the file. A section has to be in square brackets [section]. The value for a key has to be assigned by the use of an equal sign (key = value). All keys starting with a semicolon are ineffective. Settings with a semicolon are not marked as enabled in the Registry Editor. If some keys are missing, the default values will be used. If you don't know the meaning of a setting, don't change the setting. It could result in unpredictable effects. The whole configuration settings here are experimental. Try it out, if you get the desired result.
