TWiki Site-Level Preferences

This topic defines site-level settings that apply to all users and webs on this TWikiSite.

Changed:
<
<		ALERT! Note: This topic should be regarded as read-only, so that upgrades can safely overwrite it without risk to your customizations.
>
>
ALERT! NOTE: Don't edit this topic, changes will be lost on the next TWiki upgrade. Define new site-level settings, or overload below settings in Main.TWikiPreferences
  Preference settings local to your site should be set in Main.TWikiPreferences (this topic is pointed to by {LocalSitePreferences}, which is set by the admin in the configure interface). Settings in Main.TWikiPreferences will override settings in this topic, and should be used for defining custom settings and variables.
