Chapter D: Configuration Directives

NoOverride

By default, the search engine allows most of the above configuration directives to be overridden by search templates. This has the side effect that users could also override those settings by changing values in the query string. In particular, this could be dangerous if you have some private weblogs--even if you use IncludeBlogs or ExcludeBlogs to allow/deny certain weblogs to be searched, users could override that setting to search your private weblog. You can use NoOverride to provide a comma-separated list of configuration directives that cannot be overriden by either search templates or users. This means that only the settings made in mt-config.cgi will be used.

Default value: none

Example:

    NoOverride IncludeBlogs,ExcludeBlogs
