Greetings, First a short unpleasantness. I write to this list for opinions. Recently, I haven't really heard many. Not to be harsh, but if I don't receive feedback from this channel, I will start asking just the hometeam developers. Realize I appreciate people's input. In fact, had it not been for this forum, we might not have sequencial numbering yet. Anyway, I am thinking of how to rid ourselves of the core_settings table. That way, when we perform a core update, it never has to worry about the database. I was thinking there should be a date time format file like the language files. Basically there would be a file named after the abbreviation (ie en.php for English, es.php for Spanish). This file would contain the time and date format for that language. phpWS would ship with a default.php for all languages that do not contain a date/time file. These files could not be with language module as they work independantly from it. Along these lines, there are core_settings for censoring and allowed tags. I think these should be put into a file as well. These do not have to be php files either. We could make them text format so textpad could edit them. Let me know what you guys/gals think and whether you prefer core_settings to remain in a table.

+1 to this idea. I haven't had a chance to run around with RC2 yet. I've been busy using 0.8.3 to set up sites for people who can't wait. :p Don.

+1 from me as well. Where did you plan on sticking this file? I suggest we create a date directory since the conf directory may be busy with configs for many branch sites. Maybe even a settings directory, where we might put other files later. Just an idea. Steven > Greetings, > > First a short unpleasantness.

+1 here also Would there be also anything planned regarding the possibility to ajust the time for those who are host on a server where the time zone is different from their own localization.?

+1, with a caveat. Both methods have their pros and cons, and for a tiny amount of non-changing data like this it probably would be better to just have it in a file. However, I'd like the file to reside under the /conf directory either as itself or in a subdirectory. This serves 2 purposes -- (1) to prevent the organizational problem of having tons of configuration files littered across the directory structure, and (2) to allow hosts to easily cache the most-accessed files into memory if they want to take that step in optimization.

It seems most people are for this. I will implement it in the conf/ directory as suggested. I (and the other developers) are currently trapped in the Overlook for a few days, so we probably will be quiet until dug out.
