APS Sahaja Yoga Site-Level Preferences

This topic defines site-level settings that apply to all users and webs on this TWikiSite. This topic should be regarded as read-only, so that upgrades can safely overwrite it without risk to your customaisations.

Preference settings local to your site should be set in TWikiPreferences (this topic is pointed to by {LocalSitePreferences}, which is set by the admin in the configure interface). Settings in TWikiPreferences will override settings in this topic, and should be used for defining custom settings and variables.

See here for more information on how to set Preferences Variables.

Access Control Settings

• Users or groups allowed to create new webs: (ex: TWikiAdminGroup)
  • #Set ALLOWWEBMANAGE = TWikiAdminGroup

Creating New Preference Variables

You can introduce new VARIABLES and use them in your topics and templates. There is no need to change the TWiki engine (Perl scripts).

• A preference is defined in a TWikiShorthand bullet item: [3 spaces] * [space] Set NAME = value
  Example (as a nested bullet item, indented 6 spaces):
  • 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 #FF3366 .

• The sequential order of the preference settings is significant. Define preferences that use other preferences FIRST. For example, set WEBCOPYRIGHT before WIKIWEBMASTER since the copyright notice uses the webmaster email address.
• In order to protect your custom variables from being overwritten when upgrading the TWiki.TWikiPreferences topic, it is recommended that custom variables are defined in Main.TWikiPreferences.
