List Gallery Default View	Changes default view in a gallery from grid view to list view; see Galleries.
Localization Bundles	Customized labels for Brightspot's widgets; for details, see Customizing Brightspot's labels.
Enable Sticky Search Filters	Retains values for common search filters when searching for a different content type. For example, if you first search for articles with status `Draft`, and then search for images, the setting for status remains `Draft`.
Watching Search Result Filter Enabled	If toggled on, the legacy Watching filter is available in the search panel's results; editors can filter search results for only the items they are watching.
Watching Search Filter Disabled	If toggled off, the Watching filter appears in the search panel's Misc Filters widget; editors can filter search results for only the items they are watching.
Advanced
Disabled Plugins	List of installed plugins that are disabled.
Single Generated Permalink	Forces a newly generated permalink to replace any existing permalinks.
Extra CSS	Additional lines of CSS code that impact the Brightspot GUI. For example, the statement `label {text-decoration: underline;}` underlines all field labels in the Brightspot GUI. See also Adding custom styling and scripting.
Extra Java Script	Lines of JavaScript code that run every time you load a page in Brightspot. For example, the statement `alert('Good morning!');` displays an alert message every time you load the Dashboard, content edit form, or any other page. See also Adding custom styling and scripting.
Use Non Minified CSS	Displays linked CSS files in pretty print. Applies to viewing page sources within Brightspot. For example, if you load the Dashboard, view source, and view the linked CSS files, those files appear in pretty print. This setting has no effect on the built file `All.min.css`, which is always uglified.
Use Non Minified Java Script	Displays linked JavaScript files in pretty print. Applies to viewing page sources within Brightspot. For example, if you load the Dashboard, view source, and view the linked JavaScript files, those files appear in pretty print. This setting has no effect on the built file `All.min.js`, which is always uglified.
Disable Automatically Saving Drafts	Deprecated.
Enable Ajax Saves	Deprecated. Use instead `Disable Work in Progress`.
Disable Types Not Associated with Java Classes	Prevents models not associated with a class from appearing in the Brightspot GUI. For example, if you renamed a class `Cookies` to `Cake`, `Cookies` does not appear in the Brightspot GUI.
Disable Configurable Search Filters	If toggled off, editors can move the search panel's common filters to a collapsable list.
Trailing Slash Configuration	Configures the conditions for appending or removing a trailing slash from a URL. Do Not Change—Incoming URLs not changed. Remove—Removes trailing slashes from incoming URLs unless an asset already exists at the modified URL. Normalize—Changes the incoming URL to an existing one (if possible). For examples, see URLs and trailing slashes.
Disable Tool Checks	Deprecated.
Allow Insecure Authentication Cookie	Deprecated.
Display Site in Search Result	Adds a Site column to the search panel. This column indicates to which site a found item belongs.
Always Generate Permalinks	Always generates new permalinks and retains previous ones. For example, Brightspot often creates permalinks from the headline field. If an item's first draft has a headline `cookies`, the first permalink is `/cookies`. If the item's second draft has a headline `cakes`, the item now has two permalinks: `/cookies` and `/cakes`.
Disable Edit Field Update Cache	Deprecated. Replaced by `Disable Rtc`.
Dari Settings	List of key-value pairs for interacting with Dari. For a list of possible settings, see Configuring Dari.
Enable Cross Domain Inline Editing	Inline Editor appears for all elements on a page, even those belonging to a different domain. Useful when you log in to Brightspot at one domain (such as bsp.example.com) but publish to a different domain (such as www.example.com).
Disable Rtc	Disables the real-time communication (RTC) platform between the browser and the server. Several features rely on this platform, such as Viewers, so disabling RTC disables these features. Useful for debugging as RTC frequently changes the state of several system elements and thereby masks the sources of bugs.
Disable Invisible Content Preview	Disables the display of invisible content, such as archived items, in the Preview Pane. For example, an author is associated with an article, and the author's record is subsequently archived. The author is still visible in the preview pane—but not in the published version. Marking this option prevents the archived author from appearing in the preview pane.
Disable Work in Progress	As users type in the content edit form, Brightspot saves the incremental changes even before they click one of the save buttons in the Publish widget. Marking this option disables those interim saves. For more information, see Work in progress.
Use Old History Index	Provides backward compatibility for those projects using the old indexing of History objects.
Use Old Taxonomy Children Detection	Provides backward compatibility for those projects using the old indexing of objects implementing the Taxon interface.
Use Old Directory Paths Predicate	When querying for objects with a path: If on, appends legacy predicate `paths != missing`. If off, appends current predicate `hasPath = true`.
Use Legacy Settings Site Switching	Deprecated.
Use Legacy Search With Content	If toggled on, Brightspot appends query parameters to links in the search panel. Deprecated.
Auto Increment Permalinks	Brightspot automatically appends an incremental number to a permalink if necessary to prevent a duplicate URL.
