README password config issue #24

Closed ICHx closed 3 years ago

ICHx commented 3 years ago

The described user-settings.php does not exist. Changing defaults.php worked though.

Thanks for creating this issue - you're right, I apologize. There is a wrong filename in README (corrected accordingly). Instead please look for a file called local.config which is automatically generated at first start - does it exist? Use keys in defaults.php to apply your custom values (like password) manually (by copying to local.config).

Btw, you should also be able to change the password from the Dashboard options panel - does that work for you?

I would advise you not to change contents of defaults.php because they will be eventually overwritten some time (by an update) when I add new settings/parameters for the Dashboard. Changing the Dashboard files also unnecessarily complicates updating the Dashboard with git pull command. That is why a dynamically created file called local.config is used.
