All built-in :ref:`checks` are turned on by default, from
where you can change these settings. By default they are commented out in :ref:`sample-configuration`
so that default values are used. New checks then carried out for each new Weblate version.

You can turn off all checks:

.. code-block:: python

.. setting:: MT_DEEPL_API_VERSION

MT_DEEPL_API_VERSION
--------------------

.. versionadded:: 4.1.1

API version to use with DeepL service. The version limits scope of usage:

v1
    Is meant for CAT tools and is usable with user-based subscription.
v2
    Is meant for API usage and the subscription is usage based.

Previously Weblate was classified as a CAT tool by DeepL, so it was supposed to
use the v1 API, but now is supposed to use the v2 API.
Therefore it defaults to v2, and you can change it to v1 in case you have
an existing CAT subscription and want Weblate to use that.

List of authentication backends to allow registration from. This only limits
new registrations, users can still authenticate and add authentication using
all configured authentication backends.

It is recommended to keep :setting:`REGISTRATION_OPEN` enabled while limiting
registration backends, otherwise users will be able to register, but Weblate
will not show links to register in the user interface.

Example:

.. code-block:: python

    REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS = ["azuread-oauth2", "azuread-tenant-oauth2"]

.. hint::

   The backend names match names used in URL for authentication.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`REGISTRATION_OPEN`,
    :doc:`auth`

.. setting:: REGISTRATION_CAPTCHA

Defaults to ``.*``, which allows any e-mail address to be registered.

You can use it to restrict registration to a single e-mail domain:

.. code-block:: python

    REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH = r'^.*@weblate\.org$'

.. setting:: REGISTRATION_OPEN

REGISTRATION_OPEN
-----------------

Whether registration of new accounts is currently permitted.
This optional setting can remain the default ``True``, or changed to ``False``.

This setting affects built-in authentication by e-mail address or through the
Python Social Auth (you can whitelist certain back-ends using
:setting:`REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS`).

.. note::

   If using third-party authentication methods such as :ref:`ldap-auth`, it
   just hides the registration form, but new users might still be able to sign
   in and create accounts.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`REGISTRATION_ALLOW_BACKENDS`,
    :setting:`REGISTRATION_EMAIL_MATCH`,
    :doc:`auth`

.. setting:: REPOSITORY_ALERT_THRESHOLD

    This is in implemented in the :ref:`sample-configuration`. For Docker, use
    :envvar:`WEBLATE_REQUIRE_LOGIN`.

.. setting:: SENTRY_DSN

SENTRY_DSN

.. versionadded:: 4.3

Set session expiry for authenticated users. This complements
:setting:`django:SESSION_COOKIE_AGE` which is used for unauthenticated users.

.. seealso::

    :setting:`django:SESSION_COOKIE_AGE`

.. setting:: SIMPLIFY_LANGUAGES

SIMPLIFY_LANGUAGES
------------------

Use simple language codes for default language/country combinations. For
example an ``fr_FR`` translation will use the ``fr`` language code. This is usually
the desired behavior, as it simplifies listing languages for these default
combinations.

Turn this off if you want to different translations for each variant.

.. setting:: SITE_DOMAIN

SITE_DOMAIN
-----------

Configures site domain. This is necessary to produce correct absolute links in
many scopes (for example activation e-mails, notifications or RSS feeds).

In case Weblate is running on non-standard port, include it here as well.

**Examples:**

.. code-block:: python

    # Production site with domain name
    SITE_DOMAIN = "weblate.example.com"

    # Local development with IP address and port
    SITE_DOMAIN = "127.0.0.1:8000"

.. note::

    This setting should only contain the domain name. For configuring protocol,
    (enabling and enforcing HTTPS) use :setting:`ENABLE_HTTPS` and for changing
    URL, use :setting:`URL_PREFIX`.

.. hint::

   On a Docker container, the site domain is configured through
   :envvar:`WEBLATE_ALLOWED_HOSTS`.

.. seealso::

   :ref:`production-site`,
   :ref:`production-hosts`,
   :ref:`production-ssl`
   :envvar:`WEBLATE_SITE_DOMAIN`,
   :setting:`ENABLE_HTTPS`

.. setting:: SITE_TITLE

SITE_TITLE
----------

Site title to be used for the website and sent e-mails.

.. setting:: SPECIAL_CHARS

SPECIAL_CHARS
-------------

Additional characters to include in the visual keyboard, :ref:`visual-keyboard`.

The default value is:

.. code-block:: python

    SPECIAL_CHARS = ('\t', '\n', '…')

.. setting:: SINGLE_PROJECT

SINGLE_PROJECT
--------------

.. versionadded:: 3.8

Redirects users directly to a project or component instead of showing
the dashboard. You can either set it to ``True`` and in this case it only works in
case there is actually only single project in Weblate. Alternatively set
the project slug, and it will redirect unconditionally to this project.

.. versionchanged:: 3.11

   The setting now also accepts a project slug, to force displaying that
   single project.

Example:

.. code-block:: python

    SINGLE_PROJECT = "test"

.. setting:: STATUS_URL

STATUS_URL
----------

The URL where your Weblate instance reports its status.

.. setting:: SUGGESTION_CLEANUP_DAYS

SUGGESTION_CLEANUP_DAYS
-----------------------

.. versionadded:: 3.2.1

Automatically deletes suggestions after a given number of days.
Defaults to ``None``, meaning no deletions.

.. setting:: URL_PREFIX

URL_PREFIX
----------

This setting allows you to run Weblate under some path (otherwise it relies on
being run from the webserver root).

.. note::

    To use this setting, you also need to configure your server to strip this prefix.
    For example with WSGI, this can be achieved by setting ``WSGIScriptAlias``.

.. hint::

    The prefix should start with a ``/``.

Example:

.. code-block:: python

   URL_PREFIX = '/translations'

.. note::

    This setting does not work with Django's built-in server, you would have to
    adjust :file:`urls.py` to contain this prefix.

.. setting:: VCS_BACKENDS

VCS_BACKENDS
------------

Configuration of available VCS backends.

.. note::

    Weblate tries to use all supported back-ends you have the tools for.

.. hint::

    You can limit choices or add custom VCS back-ends by using this.

.. code-block:: python

   VCS_BACKENDS = (
      'weblate.vcs.git.GitRepository',
   )

.. seealso::

   :ref:`vcs`

.. setting:: VCS_CLONE_DEPTH

VCS_CLONE_DEPTH
---------------

.. versionadded:: 3.10.2

Configures how deep cloning of repositories Weblate should do.

.. note::

    Currently this is only supported in :ref:`vcs-git`. By default Weblate does shallow clones of the
    repositories to make cloning faster and save disk space. Depending on your usage
    (for example when using custom :ref:`addons`), you might want to increase
    the depth or turn off shallow clones completely by setting this to 0.

.. hint::

    In case you get ``fatal: protocol error: expected old/new/ref, got 'shallow
    <commit hash>'`` error when pushing from Weblate, turn off shallow clones completely by setting:

.. code-block:: python

   VCS_CLONE_DEPTH = 0

.. setting:: WEBLATE_ADDONS

WEBLATE_ADDONS
--------------

List of addons available for use. To use them, they have to be enabled for
a given translation component. By default this includes all built-in addons, when
extending the list you will probably want to keep existing ones enabled, for
example:


.. code-block:: python

    WEBLATE_ADDONS = (
        # Built-in addons
        "weblate.addons.gettext.GenerateMoAddon",
        "weblate.addons.gettext.UpdateLinguasAddon",
