settings configuration

Defining variables in a site's settings.php $conf array

General

The Drupal installation process and Drupal Modules use the variables table to store different types of information that will be used on runtime. The values of these variables can be overridden in the settings.php file. (see usage section below)

Following is the list of default variables available on a fresh install (It’s important to note that every module core or contributed, when enabled, may add other variables that can be altered in the configuration setting).
