-# Configuring instance
-You can configure your instance from admin interface. You need account with admin rights and little change in config file, which will allow settings configuration from database.
-
-```elixir
-config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: true
-```
-
-## How it works
-Settings are stored in database and are applied in `runtime` after each change. Most of the settings take effect immediately, except some, which need instance reboot. These settings are needed in `compile time`, that's why settings are duplicated to the file.
-
-File with duplicated settings is located in `config/{env}.exported_from_db.exs` if pleroma is runned from source. For prod env it will be `config/prod.exported_from_db.exs`.
-
-For releases: `/etc/pleroma/prod.exported_from_db.secret.exs` or `PLEROMA_CONFIG_PATH/prod.exported_from_db.exs`.
-
-## How to set it up
-You need to migrate your existing settings to the database. This task will migrate only added by user settings.
-For example you add settings to `prod.secret.exs` file, only these settings will be migrated to database. For release it will be `/etc/pleroma/config.exs` or `PLEROMA_CONFIG_PATH`.
-You can do this with mix task (all config files will remain untouched):
-
-```sh tab="OTP"
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_to_db
-```
-
-```sh tab="From Source"
-mix pleroma.config migrate_to_db
-```
-
-Now you can change settings in admin interface. After each save, settings from database are duplicated to the `config/{env}.exported_from_db.exs` file.
-
-**ATTENTION**
-
-**Be careful while changing the settings. Every inaccurate configuration change can break the federation or the instance load.**
-
-*Compile time settings, which require instance reboot and can break instance loading:*
-- all settings inside these keys:
- - `:hackney_pools`
- - `:chat`
-- partially settings inside these keys:
- - `:seconds_valid` in `Pleroma.Captcha`
- - `:proxy_remote` in `Pleroma.Upload`
- - `:upload_limit` in `:instance`
-
-## How to dump settings from database to file
-
-*Adding `-d` flag will delete migrated settings from database table.*
-
-```sh tab="OTP"
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl config migrate_from_db [-d]
-```
-
-```sh tab="From Source"
-mix pleroma.config migrate_from_db [-d]
-```
-
-
-## How to completely remove it
-
-1. Truncate or delete all values from `config` table
-```sql
-TRUNCATE TABLE config;
-```
-2. Delete `config/{env}.exported_from_db.exs`.
-
-For `prod` env:
-```bash
-cd /opt/pleroma
-cp config/prod.exported_from_db.exs config/exported_from_db.back
-rm -rf config/prod.exported_from_db.exs
-```
-*If you don't want to backup settings, you can skip step with `cp` command.*
-
-3. Set configurable_from_database to `false`.
-```elixir
-config :pleroma, configurable_from_database: false
-```
-4. Restart pleroma instance
-```bash
-sudo service pleroma restart
-```
