| |
| − | == Configuration Options ==
| |
| − | The following is a breakdown of categories and sub-categories that you can find your configuration admin settings in.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You'll find the following settings in the Offerit Configuration Admin.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Project Settings ===
| |
| − | The Configuration Admin's "Project Settings" section contains settings that base settings that apply to your [[Offerit]] install. The important settings in this section include:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Project - Allows you to configure the name of your [[Offerit]] install, as well as domain and time zone.
| |
| − | ** PROJECT_NAME / NICE_NAME - Used on various Offerit templates to print the name of your Offerit. For example: NICE_NAME is used to name the news section on customers.php. You can change these to anything.
| |
| − | ** OFFERITLLC_PRODUCT_CODE - Identifies your system for the automatic license update. Do not change this unless [[Offerit]] tells you to.
| |
| − | ** PROJECT_HOSTNAME - Your commissions's [[ct#Domain|domain]]. If you change this, you should setup an Apache virtual host for the hold value so that your old links continue to work. Warning: setting this to a bad value will break Offerit.
| |
| − | * Period Configuration - Change how long pay periods are, as well as payout delays and if you automatically store payments.
| |
| − | ** PAYOUT_PERIOD - Sets which days start a [[ct#Period|Period]]. At the end of a period, Offerit makes a [[Payment Dump|payment dump]]. The value can be days of the month (e.x 1, 16, or 30) or days of the week (w1 is Monday, w2 is Tuesday, etc...). The default pay periods are 1-15, and 16-end of month. This means that your pay periods will begin on the 1st and the 16th of each month. If you want this value changed, please [http://clients.toomuchmedia.com contact support].
| |
| − | ** PAYOUT_DELAYED - Tells the system the number of [[ct#Period|pay periods]] to wait for before generating a payment dump. The default value is 0. If you want this value changed, please [http://clients.toomuchmedia.com contact support].
| |
| − | ** PAYOUT_AUTOSTORE - Stores payments immediately after they are formed. This prevents you from needing to manually store payments, so you can always see what needs to be paid to your affiliates.
| |
| − | * Database settings - Configure essential information for your MySQL database, such as server, username, password, etc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Security ===
