<nowiki>*****THIS SECTION MAY NEED REVISION*****</nowiki>
*You can fine tune access to wordpress with DB settings:
http://wiki.contribs.org/Web_Application_RPM#New_DB_settings
*Local Settings:
The config file is now templated, so changes need to be made in a new fragment, eg:
nano /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/wordpress/wp-config.php/05local
check which setting you want to change with:
cat /opt/wordpress/wp-config-sample.php
then add the new setting in the new fragment and expand, it will overrule the old:
expand-template /opt/wordpress/wp-config.php
If you think your setting should be the default, raise a bug.
