Configuration parameters

OpenKM is preconfigured with a number of parameters. However, if you plan to use it in production you should take a look at Recommended configuration parameters. To access Configuration parameters go to Administration > Configuration parameters.

Configuration parameters are shown in a table with three columns:

Property Key Type Value

Property key is the unique identifier for each configuration property.

There are several configuration types:

• String.
• Integer ( only numeric values are allowed ).
• Boolean ( only true or false values allowed ).
• List ( each break line is considered as new list element ).
• Text.
• File.

To create your own parameters read Creating your own parameters.
