Summary | 0019750: The Configuration chapter doesn't explain how to change settings | ||||
Description | The Configuration chapter jumps right in and describes all the settings and what they mean but never says anything about where they're located or how to set them. I'm guessing they're all set in config_inc.php, but that's just a guess. That should be the first thing in the chapter. | ||||

This is the first thing that is decribed after the installation chapters for new or upgrade installations. From http://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master-1.2.x/en/administration_guide.html#ADMIN.INSTALL.CONFIG "Open or create the file config_inc.php in an editor and add or modify any values as required. These will override the default values." I think this is the best place for it. Do you agree that we can close this issue? |

I am a real-life use case that shows it would be helpful to new users to have the configuration file explained in the beginning of the Configuration chapter. You can close the issue if you want, but my initial installation process would have been smoother if this information was at the beginning of the Configuration chapter. It certainly doesn't hurt to have a piece of information in more than one location. |
