TWiki Web Preferences

The following settings are web preferences of the TWiki web. These preferences overwrite the site-level preferences in TWikiPreferences, and can be overwritten by user preferences (your personal topic, eg: TWikiGuest in the Main web).

Preferences:

These settings override the defaults for this web only. See TWikiPreferences#Default_web_preferences for a full list of defaults.

• Set WEBTOPICLIST = Welcome  |  Register  |  Changes  |  Topics  |  Index  |  Search  |  Go

• Set WEBBGCOLOR = #FFD8AA

• Set SITEMAPWHAT = Welcome, Registration, and other StartingPoints; TWiki history & Wiki style; All the docs...
• Set SITEMAPUSETO = ...discover TWiki details, and how to start your own site.
• Set WEBFORMS = TWikiPreferencesForm

• Users or groups who are not / are allowed to view / change / rename topics in the TWiki web: (See TWikiAccessControl)
  • #Set DENYWEBVIEW =
  • #Set ALLOWWEBVIEW =
  • #Set DENYWEBCHANGE =
  • Set ALLOWWEBCHANGE = TWikiAdminGroup
  • #Set DENYWEBRENAME =
  • Set ALLOWWEBRENAME = TWikiAdminGroup
  • Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = TWikiAdminGroup
  • Set ALLOWTOPICRENAME = TWikiAdminGroup
• Users or groups allowed to create new webs: (ex: TWikiAdminGroup)
  • #Set ALLOWWEBMANAGE = TWikiAdminGroup

• Web preferences that are not allowed to be overridden by user preferences:
  • Set FINALPREFERENCES = NOSEARCHALL, ATTACHFILESIZELIMIT, WIKIWEBMASTER, WEBCOPYRIGHT, WEBTOPICLIST, DENYWEBVIEW, ALLOWWEBVIEW, DENYWEBCHANGE, ALLOWWEBCHANGE, DENYWEBRENAME, ALLOWWEBRENAME, ALLOWWEBMANAGE, DENYWEBMANAGE

Notes:

• A preference is defined by:
  3 or 6 spaces * Set NAME = value
  Example:
  • Set WEBBGCOLOR = #FFFFC0
• Preferences are used as TWikiVariables by enclosing the name in percent signs. Example:
  • When you write variable %WEBBGCOLOR% , it gets expanded to #FFD8AA .
• The sequential order of the preference settings is significant. Define preferences that use other preferences first, i.e. set WEBCOPYRIGHT before WIKIWEBMASTER since %WEBCOPYRIGHT% uses the %WIKIWEBMASTER% variable.
• You can introduce your own preferences variables and use them in your topics and templates.
