Settings#
Options that belong to no module — how the site presents itself, who runs it, and how the administration itself behaves.
Open them with the Nastavení link at the very bottom of the left column. There is no other way in: the menu has no Nastavení item.
Six tabs#
The section is split into six screens. They are switched with the strip of tabs at the top and each has its own address, so you can bookmark it.
| Tab | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Nastavení webu | technical options and keys to external services |
| Nastavení administrace | the administration theme and rows per page |
| Provozovatel | who runs the site and how to reach them |
| Identita webu | name, logo, favicon, sharing preview |
| Vlastní kód | your own CSS, JavaScript and third-party snippets |
| Dlaždice dashboardu | what is offered on the administration home page |
Module settings are elsewhere
The e-shop, blog, classifieds, catalogue, stock, and invoicing each have their own Nastavení inside their own part of the menu. They did not move here — they are options of one agenda, not of the whole site.
Dashboard tiles are covered by another chapter
Setting up the quick links on the administration home page is described in Getting around the administration.
Nastavení webu#
A list of key–value pairs grouped by module. The form is built from what is stored in the system — the fields are not fixed and have no labels. Each row shows only its key.
Typically you will find:
| Area | Example keys |
|---|---|
| Measurement and integrations | googleAnalyticsId, googleTagManagerId, googleSiteVerification, googleMapsKey |
| Sending email | emailSending, emailAddress, emailUseSmtp, emailQueueBatchSize |
| Site behaviour | automaticActivation, cookiePolicyPageId, comment.useAutoApproval, rating.* |
| Site theme | theme.frontend, theme.frontend.path |
Values are not validated
Almost anything can be typed into most fields. A wrong value does not produce a message on save — it shows up as something not working, often somewhere else and later than where you were.
theme.frontend and theme.frontend.path are a pair
They are two free text fields side by side and must point at the same template. A typo in either one means every page of the site fails on missing template files — the site does not merely look different, it stops rendering. Talk to your administrator before touching either of them.
Copy the old value down before changing it
There is no undo. A note in a text file gets you back faster than digging through a backup.
Passwords to external services do not belong here
Anything in the settings is visible to everybody who reaches the administration. Payment gateways have their own screen where the values are hidden. Do not copy them into the general settings.
Some keys are deliberately absent from the list#
Options that have their own tab are hidden from this list so they cannot be changed in two places and drift apart:
- administration theme and rows per page → Nastavení administrace
- operator details (
web.operator.*) → Provozovatel - site name, logo, favicon, sharing image (
projectName,site.*) → Identita webu
A few keys are dead and read only by old code
They are left over from the previous generation of the system and are hidden too. Were they to appear in the list, changing them would do nothing.
Nastavení administrace#
Two options that concern the administration only — they have no effect on the site.
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Počet záznamů na stránku | the length of every list in the administration |
| Téma administrace | the administration theme |
| Cesta k tématu | shown only; derived from the selected theme |
Set rows per page to 25–50
More loads slowly; fewer means paging all the time. The minimum is 1, otherwise the form will not save.
The theme is picked from a list, not typed
Only templates that actually exist in the system are offered, and the path to them is derived automatically. These used to be two free text fields, and a typo in them brought down the whole administration including the sign-in screen — hence the change.
Procedure: change a value in the settings#
- Open Nastavení at the bottom of the left column.
- Pick the tab the option belongs to (see the table above).
- Copy the current value down before you overwrite it.
- Change the value and press Uložit.
- Check on the site that the change took effect.
Some changes take effect only after the cache is cleared
If you saved a value and nothing changed on the site, it is not necessarily a fault — the system remembers part of the settings. Ask your administrator to clear the cache.
A green message means saved, not verified
The system confirms that it wrote the value down — not that the value makes sense. A key to an external service proves itself only by that service starting (or not starting) to work.
