Options

• You can fine tune access to wordpress with DB settings.

http://wiki.contribs.org/Generic_WebApp_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
