Site-level preferences are located in TWiki.TWikiPreferences, however this People.TWikiPreferences prefs topic has overrride priority and should be used for local customisations. This allows for easier upgrades as you don't need to worry about the shipped preferences clobbering yours. It's easier to keep a handle on if you only copy over the settings you actually change.

Important Ones

  • FINALPREFERENCES locks site-level preferences that are not allowed to be overridden by WebPreferences or user preferences:

    • #Set BROADCASTMESSAGE =
      This wiki will be upgraded to TWiki 4.2 (Freetown) during break week (May 26). There's nothing you need to do for this, I just wanted to warn you that the wiki might be down temporarily that week. -- BobKrzaczek - 21 Apr 2008

Plugins

Setting them here avoids modifying topics in the TWiki web; in this way, future upgrades don't overwrite our settings.
