# General Config Settings

Craft supports several configuration settings that give you control over its behavior.

To set a new config setting, open `config/general.php` and define it in one of the environment config arrays, depending on which environment(s) you want the setting to apply to.

For example, if you want to allow Craft to be updated in dev environments but not on staging or production environments, do this:

```php{4,10}
return [
    // Global settings
    '*' => [
        'allowUpdates' => false,
        // ...
    ],

    // Dev environment settings
    'dev' => [
        'allowUpdates' => true,
        // ...
    ],

    // Staging environment settings
    'staging' => [
        // ...
    ],

    // Production environment settings
    'production' => [
        // ...
    ],
];
```

Here’s the full list of config settings that Craft supports:

<!-- BEGIN SETTINGS -->

### `actionTrigger`

Allowed types

:   [string](http://php.net/language.types.string)

Default value

:   `'actions'`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$actionTrigger](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$actionTrigger)



The URI segment Craft should look for when determining if the current request should first be routed to a
controller action.


### `activateAccountSuccessPath`

Allowed types

:   `mixed`

Default value

:   `''`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$activateAccountSuccessPath](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$activateAccountSuccessPath)



The URI that users without access to the Control Panel should be redirected to after activating their account.

See [craft\helpers\ConfigHelper::localizedValue()](https://docs.craftcms.com/api/v3/craft-helpers-confighelper.html#method-localizedvalue) for a list of supported value types.


### `addTrailingSlashesToUrls`

Allowed types

:   [boolean](http://php.net/language.types.boolean)

Default value

:   `false`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$addTrailingSlashesToUrls](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$addTrailingSlashesToUrls)



Whether auto-generated URLs should have trailing slashes.


### `aliases`

Allowed types

Default value

:   `true`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$allowAdminChanges](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$allowAdminChanges)



Whether admins should be allowed to make administrative changes to the system.

If this is disabled, the Settings and Plugin Store sections will be hidden,
the Craft edition and Craft/plugin versions will be locked, and the project config will become read-only.

Therefore you should only disable this in production environments when [$useProjectConfigFile](https://docs.craftcms.com/api/v3/craft-config-generalconfig.html#property-useprojectconfigfile) is enabled,
and you have a deployment workflow that runs `composer install` automatically on deploy.


### `allowSimilarTags`

Allowed types

Defined by

Default value

:   `null`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$backupCommand](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$backupCommand)



The shell command that Craft should execute to create a database backup.

By default Craft will run `mysqldump` or `pg_dump`, provided that those libraries are in the `$PATH`
variable for the user the web server  is running as.

There are several tokens you can use that Craft will swap out at runtime:

- `{path}` - the target backup file path
- `{port}` - the current database port
- `{server}` - the current database host name
- `{user}` - the user to connect to the database
- `{database}` - the current database name
- `{schema}` - the current database schema (if any)

This can also be set to `false` to disable database backups completely.


### `backupOnUpdate`

Allowed types

Defined by

:::


### `blowfishHashCost`

Allowed types

:   [integer](http://php.net/language.types.integer)

Default value

:   `13`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$blowfishHashCost](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$blowfishHashCost)



The higher the cost value, the longer it takes to generate a password hash and to verify against it. Therefore,
higher cost slows down a brute-force attack.

For best protection against brute force attacks, set it to the highest value that is tolerable on production
servers.

The time taken to compute the hash doubles for every increment by one for this value.
For example, if the hash takes 1 second to compute when the value is 14 then the compute time varies as
2^(value - 14) seconds.


### `cacheDuration`

Allowed types

:   `mixed`

Default value

:   `86400`

Defined by

:   [GeneralConfig::$cacheDuration](api:craft\config\GeneralConfig::$cacheDuration)

Set to `0` to keep the account locked indefinitely, requiring an admin to manually unlock the account.

By default, Craft will require a 'password' field to be submitted on front-end, public
user registrations. Setting this to `true` will no longer require it on the initial registration form.
