= Site Defaults

Sites are stored in the database. However, if they do not have a particular attributed configured (the value is NULL), then the attribute's value defaults to whatever is configured in <tt>crabgrass.*.yml</tt>.

The following attributes may be set globally in <tt>crabgrass.*.yml</tt>, or on a per-site basis (by using the database):

title:
  the title of the website.

email_sender:
  email address that outgoing emails are sent from.

enforce_ssl:
  if true, cookies will only work over tls/ssl.

show_exceptions:
  if true, exceptions are show to the user.

require_user_email:
  if true, user registration requires email address

default_language:
  language code of the default language to use

tracking:
  if true, we track user visits, logins and page views.

available_page_types:
  if set, limits what page types can be created.

chat:
  if false, chat is disabled

translation_group:
  the name of a group that is allowed access to edit translations.

limited:
  if set to true, then a user can only see people, groups, and pages from the
  current site. stuff from other sites will appear invisible. (note, currently,
  this is not actually stored in the database but must be globally configured).

signup_mode:
  determines how signup works. there are three options:
  (1) default --> anyone can sign up
  (2) closed  --> no one can sign up
  (3) invite_only --> you can sign up only if you were invited to join a group.

Unfrequently modified options:

  :pagination_size -- how many items to show before paginating
  :evil -- used for google analytic
